This new steampunk series opens in 1880, when women aren't allowed to vote, much less dress up in a costume and fight crime. But twenty year-old socialite Sarah Stanton still dreams of becoming a hero. Her opportunity arrives in tragedy when the leader of the Society of Paragons, New York's greatest team of gentlemen adventurers, is murdered right before her eyes. To uncover the truth behind the assassination, Sarah joins forces with the amazing mechanical man known as The Automaton. Together they unmask a conspiracy at the heart of the Paragons that reveals the world of heroes and high-society is built on a crumbling foundation of greed and lies. When Sarah comes face to face with the megalomaniacal villain behind the murder, she must discover if she has the courage to sacrifice her life of privilege and save her clockwork friend.

The Golden Age of Heroes is over: capes and vigilantism are made illegal through corrupt political agendas. Anyone with abilities, young or old, is registered with federal records. Microchip devices are implanted under the skin of Supers in order to keep track of their movements, but many defy this law and see it for what it is: a way to herd them like cattle. Supers go missing from the streets and are never heard from again; rumors spread among the streets and underground communities of abductions being funded by the city's largest corporation: Draco Industries. One Super has been in hiding since he was a child, when the Registration Act had first been put into place, due to his blue skin and crimson hair. Zeke Blackwell makes a living for himself underground in an arena, pitting his own skills against other Supers. Making every point to stay out of the public eye, Zeke inevitably finds himself drawn into the thick of the abduction conspiracies only to find that not only are they true, but worse.
