In 1744, London's theatrical world is abuzz with the rumor of a lost manuscript. The celebrated actress Peg Woffington believes the missing History of Cardenio holds her greatest role. Accompanied by her steward, Ignatius Sancho, she pursues a trail of cryptic clues across the English countryside. Their search is complicated by rival collectors and shadowy figures who employ lethal methods to secure the prize. Disguises are donned and broken alliances litter their path from country estates to crowded taverns. The hunt for the play becomes a performance of its own, where every discovered page raises the stakes.
