In 'The Pursuit' Turpin and Swiftnick pursue a highwayman and spend the night at the home of Mrs Bedingfield and her two beautiful daughters. 'The Blacksmith' sees the duo kidnap Sir John Glutton and offer him to Spiker in exchange for Turpin's imprisoned blacksmith friend Sam Morgan. 'The Imposter' has Sir John employ a man to pose as Turpin in order to sully his name with the locals. 'The Upright Man' finds Turpin attempting to help the widow of his hanged friend Ben Hawk when she is shunned by the community. In 'The Whipping Boy' the Duke of Hertford requests that top thief-taker Colonel Tobias Moat track down Turpin and Swiftnick after they rob him. 'The Hero' sees Nigel Ffoulkes-Withers posing as Turpin in order to prevent the arranged marriage between his sweetheart Phyllida Tranter and Spiker. 'The Turncoat' has Sir John Glutton ask Turpin for help in recovering some incriminating letters. 'Jail-birds' finds Turpin and Swiftnick captured due to the latter's impetuousness.
