But don't let that stop you from diving into this historical fiction meets social commentary novel set in pre-World War I Britain. Follow the journey of Richard Herncastle, a young artist who gets caught up in the world of a traveling music hall troupe. Along the way, he discovers the harsh realities of fame, ambition, and human nature.
