Rebuffed by his colleagues and superiors, Henry turns to himself to be the subject of his experiments and unwillingly unleashed his inner demon London would come to know as Mr. Hyde.

Lucy Harris is the main attraction at The Red Rat, a rather seedy pub and brothel. Although a hopeful dreamer, she takes life as it is knowing there is little better life for her.
