Soldier and secret agent during the latter part of the Napoleonic wars when Wellington and the British army were endeavouring to help force the French out of Spain. He was handsome, charming, and a lover of many women, but saddled with a wife he neither loved nor wanted.

As the fighting progresses and Wellington finally wins the day, they expect news of Nicky or his return to them.

Still they wait, and wait, and fret, until a desperate Francis and Jack finally go in search of him, or any information as to his whereabouts, or fate. And then, 25 years after he mysteriously disappeared, The Shadow makes a surprise re-appearance….
