"Time turners are delicate instruments, Miss McGonagall..." Albus Dumbledore is known for his wisdom, but none has ever carried so great a weight as this pronouncement, the words that continuously play through young Minerva McGonagall's head as she races through the Hogwarts halls with a broken time turner - within the hour she and a handful of teachers find themselves in an unfamiliar timescape.
Now it is the Victorian era, and rules of etiquette are strictly followed. It's a different world, wherein wizards and muggles no longer coexist; confined to the now bustling city of Hogsmeade, members of the magical community live their lives separate from the muggles. Whilst those accidentally transplanted from the future must struggle to find their place in a strange world, those who actually belong must do the same.
It's a world of secrecy, repression, and magic built on a tenuous foundation of shifting beliefs and hypocrisy that makes one wonder whether or not anyone can find their place.
