accompany her niece, Ginny, into the country for

highwaymen and launched into adventure.
Forced into each other's company, Ginny begins

revealing a way to unmask the true man behind
Sir Anthony's frivolous facade. Meanwhile, the
dowager duchess has plans of her own for this
pair, and her special task turns into a battle of
words, wills, and wit.
