As James Delaney's trading plans start to unravel, a family revelation drives him into dark and haunted places, both real and emotional. Those around him, his household and family included, seem to be spiralling out of control, with terrible prices being paid. Meanwhile, at the East India Company, a frustrated Sir Stuart Strange calls for all-out war against James, threatening to destroy all he has built. As James reacts to this upsurge of chaos, things take a dire turn. [1]

Notes[]

  • The writing on the wall at the Bethlem Hospital, "Mens dana in corpora Sano", is misspelled. It should be "Mens sana in corpore sano", meaning "a healthy mind in a healthy body". "Dana" does not have a Latin equivalent, but it might be a typo for "Damna", meaning "damaged, damned, loss".
