Ed Hartlepool finds he has inherited a $7 million tax bill, two massive overdrafts, an 80-year-old butler and a vast country estate, creaking at the seams. He also discovers a woman claiming to be his father's first mistress in residence at Hartlepool Hall. Can Ed rescue his inheritance without turning it into luxury apartments and a golf course, and is 'Lady Alice' really who she claims to be?
