Synopsis
Time-traveling Oxford historian Ned Henry is sent to Victorian England to recover a hideous piece of artwork for a rebuilt cathedral. But a temporal incongruity threatens to unravel history itself, and Ned must navigate drawing rooms, boat trips, and the machinations of a formidable dowager to set things right. A comedy of manners meets time-travel caper.
