Bored with his pedestrian life as the innkeepers son and village post boy Elias dreams of escaping to London the city where dreams come true. Only Eliass bohemian twin sister Bess can match his acerbic wit and keep him sane. Together they bewitch Kitwick with their beauty and intrigue though no one not even their father understands them.When he is stripped of his parcels (and clothes) by a smooth-talking highwayman Elias is forced to walk home naked. Never one to let another man have the last word Elias recruits the velvet-voiced redcoat Mr. Sweeton to help save his job by tracking down the missing post. However the chivalrous Mr. Sweeton might have motivations for helping other than a desire to maintain order and uphold the law and the highwayman might not be the villain he seems...
