Naive, barely twenty, and easily influenced, William O'Brien is an 1870s Irish impressionist with big dreams in a world of dead ends. Discouraged and broke after spending his life savings to get to Paris in a failed attempt to study art at a prestigious university, William takes on odd jobs - like painting portraits in a local café-to make ends meet. It is here that one night a mysterious Englishman offers him the chance of a lifetime. Before long, what started out as an opportunity to attend a revolutionary art show leads William into a dangerous web of archaeological treasure chasers, secret societies, and paranormal anomalies where the only person he can rely on calls himself Dr. Irel E. Vant. With no money, no lodgings, and having narrowly survived a brush with a band of masked assailants, William is plunged into the world of the eccentric Dr. Vant where he will trade custodial service for good wages and the full funding of his art. But soon after Dr. Vant's leave for an exotic journey, William's life is threatened once more and what was portrayed as a humble living in a small village turns into an enigmatic storm of shady characters, mystical artefacts, and seemingly irrelevant tales with an immoral epicentre.
