Snake dance

Mystical mystery for inquisitive minds

Start a hunt for the most powerful witches or die at the hands of the queen of England?

Christmas Eve, 1889. In the secret unit of the Edinburgh police - the department for the investigation of unsolved cases, a presumably inexplicable and supernatural nature - there were bad days. But today is definitely the worst.

In the middle of the night, the prime minister calls the scandalously known police inspectors Ian Frey and nine-fingered McGreas and informs them: Queen Victoria, the most powerful person in the country, longs for their death. After all, they killed the mediums dear to her heart ... In order to earn a pardon, Frey and McGreu have to go on a mission equivalent to the death sentence. And at the same time find out what secret is hidden in the palace?

The exciting Victorian detective with a duet of charismatic and damn charming detectives.
