Release Date: Feb 2026

A Pastiche & Picaresque Adventure

‘Tis a truth universally acknowledged that a gentleman in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife. However, our hero is in possession of no fortune whatsoever... And thus, we have a story to tell...

Headline: Somerset, 1865. A Scandal in the Making.

The Hero: Meet Mr. Francis Sheringham, a libertine with charm far more substantial than his purse. Cheated out of his ancestral home by the vengeful Lord Grant, Francis turns to the only career left for a desperate gentleman: Highway Robbery.

The Heroine: Enter Miss Vanessa Lockwood, a fiercely independent heiress trapped by the schemes of the very man who ruined Francis.

The Conflict: When the most courteous rogue on the King's Highway aims for her fortune, he accidentally captures her heart instead.

What to Expect:

A rollicking burlesque of mistaken identities, disastrous fancy-dress balls, calamitous kidnappings, and farcical duels.

‘Tis Picaresque. ‘Tis Preposterous. ‘Tis Love & Money.

A Glimpse into 1865

‘Tis another truth universally acknowledged — though whether first proclaimed by the wise, the love-stricken, the poet, or the pawnbroker is a matter of some debate — that every bouncing Tom and buxom Bess in possession of a beating heart is doomed to be in love at least once in their lives! But whether this affliction should prove a gentle roll down Parnassus or a headlong plunge into Bedlam is a proposition to which I should be loath to stake my reputation, let alone my purse.
