Henry, a talented artist and the only son of the Duke of Harrowfeild, is heartbroken after his cruel, practical-joking father banishes his one true love, Pierre Boyar.
The reason being, Henry and Pierre's love-making was discovered by the Minister Timms, who also resides on the expansive grounds of the Duke. Timm's delivery of this information to the Duke meets with an angry rebuff at first. However, the truth he has suspected all along. Therefore, the Duke decides to send Timms, along with his wife, his mute daughter, Sarah, and Pierre, to Australia. The Duke gifts Pierre two fine thoroughbred horses, knowing that Pierre's love for horses almost outshines his love for Henry. Pierre is ordered to marry Sarah immediately, and only then will the group be given enough funds to see them lead a comfortable life in Australia.
Meanwhile, it takes all of Henry's cunning to escape his father's control and find a way to be with Pierre forever.
Henry, a pretty young man of twenty-one, realizes a hidden desire to disguise himself as a female. Ah yes! This is it! It will allow him to sail away to the great land down under and live happily ever after with Pierre.
However, the events and eccentric characters that Henry accumulates along his journey complicate matters with intrigue, humour, and oaths that will never be broken. We assume.
