description: Pastworld is the greatest theme park ever devised. It's London - the real London - transformed into a living breathing recreation of the Victorian era. To Eve a lifelong resident of Pastworld horse-drawn carriages and gas lamps are modern technology. Eve doesn't even know she's living in a simulation - until she is forced to flee the only home she's ever known and to confront the truth about her city and herself. To Caleb a tourist visiting Pastworld the theme park is the perfect antidote to the stifling conformity and regulation of 2048. The gritty wildness of the past is thrilling - until he finds himself at the scene of a murder holding the knife and suddenly becomes a fugitive from an antiquated justice system. And in the midst of it all in the thick London fog a dark and deadly figure prowls claiming victim after victim. He's the Fantom a creature both of the past and of the future in whose dark purpose Caleb and Eve will find their destinies combined.
