After headstrong Eliza Scarlet inherits her father's detective agency, she is obliged to find a male business partner to operate in Victorian London.
Eliza takes a seemingly impossible case: proving the innocence of a man found at a murder scene with a bloodied knife in his hand, who has already pleaded guilty.
Eliza goes beyond her instructions after she is hired for an undercover job to spy on a group of suffragettes.
A photographer who takes post-mortem portraits receives bizarre and threatening messages from beyond the grave; Eliza's investigation takes her into the spirit world.
While searching for the details about her father's fate, Eliza and the Duke stumble upon a criminal enterprise in an abandoned prison.
Eliza pieces the puzzle together to find out what really happened to her father, with the help of the Duke and Moses.
