* CentralTheme: A major element of the story is "consequences", as nearly everything that happens in the story (from Lavender Jack's creation to [[spoiler:the Black Note's plot]]) are a result of the corrupt actions of the wealthy upper class, with our heroes making sure those actions will [[KarmaHoudiniWarranty bite those villains in the arse]]. Similarly, our heroes' actions have consequences of their own that they will have to face (such as Sir Mimley and Ducky acknowledging that they will have to atone and face judgement for using and manipulating many good people in their revenge plot). The story also touches on how those in power will do anything to avoid the negative repercussions for their actions, no matter how many people are hurt or worse in the process.

The dawn of the 20th century! The small European city-state of Gallery is a place of science, diversity, and wealth... but it's also held in the clutches of a corrupt wealthy elite that is squeezing it for all it's worth. But what of the mystery man who's been exposing their secrets? Dressed as a grinning devil, capable of feats of great acrobatics, able to make lamps or pistols explode with a snap of his fingers, he effortlessly steals the evidence of their crimes and passes it to the press, revealing their sins and driving them to ruin. Named Lavender Jack by the newspapers, he drives Gallery's elite into chaos as he ruins them one by one. In desperation, the mayor calls in the world's greatest detective, Theresa Ferrier, to unmask this vigilante. But will she side with the law, or with justice? And why do playboy dilettante Mimley Bastrop and his quiet but sharp-witted maidservant Ducky seem to have such a keen interest in the proceedings?

Gallery seems to resemble the Victorian Era in many respects, but there are advances in the sciences far beyond those of that time, especially [[spoiler: the computer and artificial intelligence Ochre]].
