In an age of invention, one man set out to find a medical cure for what ails women, and accidentally electrified love lives forever. London, 1880. Mortimer Granville is struggling to establish his career. When he arrives at the offices of Dr. Robert Dalrymple, London's leading specialist in women's medicine, he is hired on the spot.
