An English chimney sweep and a rat catcher discover the remains of Springheeled Jack.

Bill and Jeremy are two English young men with mundane jobs in London in 1899. They are looking for a way to move up in society.Little do they know that a being is about to enter their lives in an unexpected way.But will his appearance be a blessing or a curse? Springheeled Jack is a 175 year old Eglish folklore figure who was said to have blazing red eyes,spouted blue flames,had clawed hands, and was able to leap incredibly high in avoiding capture. He was responsible for several documented attacks in the 1800s and disappeared from sight until his remains were discovered in an old chimney.Now the pair must deal with he and his legend and try to ascertain how they may profit from this discovery.Bill is the athletic body and Jeremy, the technical mind who bring the legend of Springheeled Jack back into society with unparalleled consequences. There is action, romance, and the mystery of what 'Jack' really was:alien,creature,paranormal, or demented genius.
