It’s election month in the anarchic city of Covenage, and, as agreed by all parties, when it comes to winning votes and beating one’s opponent, anything goes.

In the buildup to election day, the city gates are opened, the curfews lifted, and the long days of lobbying and electioneering are tempered with the blades and bombs of assassination.

But the bookmakers and streetside shills have long since learned that it’s not over until she says it’s over. In the halls of power, they refer to her as the fog of war. On the streets of Covenage, they call her the Devil in the Smoke. Whoever wins her over, wins the election.

Every year they try, and every year they die.

But not this year. This year will be different. The devil has retired.

But Covenage can’t function without her, and if you can’t get the devil you know, then it is a case of better the devil you don’t than the one who won’t.

The campaign to elect a new leader of Covenage brings chaos and carnage to the streets, but it is the search for a new devil that is foremost on the citizens’ minds as the future of Covenage hangs in the balance.

Devil in the Smoke is a classic Steampunk adventure full of megalomaniacs, mad machines, and monsters.
