A respected baronet, MP and Governor of the Isle of Wight, Sir Richard Worsley was horrified when his wife Seymour eloped with his friend Captain Bisset.

Rather than grant a divorce, Sir Richard responded by suing Bisset for the huge sum of £20,000. However, Sir Richard underestimated how far Lady Worsley would go – and how many secrets she would expose – in order to protect her lover.
