Title: Deeds of darkness
Description: "In the rousing tradition of Jeffery Farnol and Samuel Shellabarger, Blair Ashton tells a dashing story of London in 1720, and of Giles Stormont, who lived a double life as one of the most elegant, foppish and bored gentlemen of fashionable court society and as a phantomlike highwayman, bent on settling his score with the ruthless group whose power reached almost to the throne itself."
