註釋

This story begins with a tragic death that rocks both of our main characters. The all-too urbane Sir John is soon on his way to the lands he owns and doesn't know. There he encounters unforgettable (and some hilarious) characters, and discovers that smugglers have established an entire way of life there that he never imagined. So unknown is he to his own tenants, that he almost loses his life when they encounter him in the midst of their night excursions. His eyes are opened to this wonderful land, far from London's posh salons. The woman who hoped to kill him off has disguised herself and ends up in this very different world too, and finds herself also transformed by this land and its amazing people.
