A disgraced lord, a notorious highwayman

Jack Carstares, the disgraced Earl of Wyndam, left England seven

long years ago, sacrificing his honor for that of his brother when he was

accused of cheating at cards. Now Jack is back, roaming his beloved South

Country in the disguise of a highwayman.

Not long after Jack's return, he encounters his old

adversary, the libertine Duke of Andover, attempting the abduction of the beautiful

Diana Beauleigh. At the point of Jack's sword, the duke is vanquished, but

foiled once, the ""Black Moth"" has no intention of failing again?

This is Georgette
