About this listen

For generations, Lynda McKean’s family have passed down the legend of their mysterious ancestor ‘Lathley’. Supposedly, he forfeited the family name and wealth after killing a man in a duel before fleeing to join Admiral Nelson’s ship The Victory. Years later, he returned to London and married a shoemaker’s daughter. Now, Lynda’s trying to track him down.
