A ghostly stranger, an ex-adventurer and supplier of ‘hot’ pork pies, a delirious Duke, a Sun worshiping zealot, a young man with a case of ‘miracle’ cures, and a butcher with an axe to grind… 

Madness and mayhem blossom like unexpected dalliances, but the question remains — will Sir Richard Upson and the Duchy of Lower Icing be undone by a silver button?

What does happen when Doctor Manky Strolls In? Find out in this amusingly intriguing story set in the imaginary medieval world of The Five Duchies… in particular, the bustling town of Lower Icing, where the Inns are in, the guards need guards, and the news is yelled out by a man in a red coat… but not the real news.
