It's summer - so time for sea air
- and where else but Brighton, especially when the Prince Regent is in residence at his Summer Pavilion.
Little does he know that his fondness for sweet cakes could be the end of him.
Among the visitors is Anna, rushing from one near-disaster to another, and Lord Giles Maltravers, the ton's most dangerous Rake, who by mischance has to act as her chaperon.
An amusing frothy tale with cricket, races, concerts and fashion - and more besides.
