Hiding Henry was the very best at hide and go seek. Then, one day in the 90's, he was never found again. Thirty years later...

Three merchant sailors and their enigmatic leader hide out at a British inn. They've been followed from India after stealing the priceless ruby eye from a holy statue. The grimy sailors ambush and kill the men who've come to retrieve the gem, unaware of how badly the statue wants its eye back. It arrives at the inn and, one by one, makes the thieves pay for their offense.

An enigmatic inventor attempts to build his namesake: a childhood machine. He offers counsel to a trio of characters who have similarly bizarre pursuits.
