Brothers George and Douglas Abernathy are clockmakers who are barely scraping a living in their family's shop.

The Abernathys' fortunes improve dramatically when the brothers invent a clockwork automaton composer named Maestro, whose musical artistry enthrals London. But there are those who believe Maestro is a fake, and others who think him a monstrosity. As Maestro tries to make sense of the world of London's high-society which he is thrown into, he incites the interest of sinister figures who would go to any lengths to discover what makes him tick.
