The Year is 1854, the setting: London.  The social season is well underway as the rich and the powerful waltz and gossip in dazzling ballrooms. Debutants seek to be noticed, while older noblewomen seek distraction from rigid expectation or to solidify their family’s position. Well-heeled gentlemen run the country from the comfort of their armchairs.. Far from the glamour, the poor in the gutter are just trying to survive. Thieves, trades men, domestic servants, all just trying to make it to their next meal. Over all of this, the dark spectre of the Crimean war grows ever larger….
