Good for you for having the guts to completely re-form your idea! It's hard to say which version I like better. I'm sad to see no sign of time-travel now, but I think a tough Victorian lady P.I. is just as hot. You've shown a richer picture of the older Cornelia, and I think you would do her justice. Either way, I'd love to read more of the story.

Well, this is really intriguing I love time travel fics - I hope you decide to continue it!

I really like this! Time travel and a mystery sounds like a winning combination to me. The way you've introduced the story in two settings at once worked really well. I hope to read more!
