Drawn from true criminal reports at The Old Bailey, this is an old fashioned Bonnie and Clyde style story set in the East End of London and in Chiswick in 1834. James Ashley who is at the centre of the story, is a particularly colourful character who grew up in the East End of London and he was born to be a villain, just like his father. When he meets up with Moll Raby in Newgate Prison a romance soon springs up between them and they make a formidable pair as they set out to rob, fleece and otherwise deprive the Chiswick folk of their worldly goods, sometimes in the most comical manner.
