Mystery

The Clockmaker's Apprentice

In a steampunk city governed by public clocks, the sudden halt of every timepiece at 3:17 throws daily life into chaos. As the apprentice to a renowned clockmaker who vanishes that same day, the story follows a chain of civic lies, buried machinery, and secret alliances beneath the streets. The mystery centers on who stopped the clocks, why the city’s hidden mechanisms are waking, and who should ultimately control time itself.
