Introduction

“… Someday the true story might be told.”

A smile was brought unto the face of Jonathan Barson as he closed the book he had read for the past five months. He stretched his whole body like an office guy does after doing a lot of paper works. Finally, he has finished reading this long novel. Then he smiled again, looking at the book he is holding in his hands. Illustrated on the cover is a man in a long, brown polyester coat that is commonly seen during the Victorian era. But what sets him apart is the deerstalker worn on his head and a pipe on his mouth.

            Then I thought, why not?
