Description

It is the winter of 1892. A Freak March snowstorm has struck the gas lit streets of Baltimore covering the city in a mantle of white. Dockside, the soot-stained snow has been further stained with the bloody remains of a local whaler; Jack Birmingham. Much of his flesh has been stripped from his body and multiple puncture wounds cover the torso. Around the body are black feathers (twelve in total) suggesting the possibility of a bird attack.

Nobody will miss Birmingham, but the Whaling company that employed him insists on a full investigation for insurance purposes.
