As farms fail all over Victorian England, the Grenville family, hereditary heirs to the ancient earldom of Felton, must do the unthinkable, and invest in the world of commerce. But as they turn their tiny shipping line into a huge conglomerate, they learn that Castlefield Shipping is full of thieving rogues who are trying to to defraud them of their investment and take over the company.
Against this backdrop is the story of John and Caroline Grenville, son and daughter of the 10th Earl of Felton.
