During a Christmas visit to her father's home, her investigation takes an interesting turn when she discovers a series of secret case files belonging to her detective grandfather, detailing a separate string of murders which share a striking similarity to the ones she is trying to solve. In both cases, the perpetrator targeted sex workers and murdered them in terrible ways, and strangely enough, wore a silver mask, dark cloak and top hat. The game follows both Victoria in her modern day quest to stop the killer, and her grandfather [[PrivateDetective Gus McPherson]] in his investigation of the 1920s Prague murders.
