Deborah and Agostino
Things have been going as well as they could since we last saw the Lacey family. Phoebe and Jesse finally married, and Kitty and Jack welcomed two new sons: Oscar and August. Deborah and Agostino's marriage is doing well, and Simon has stayed single, focusing on finishing The Adventures of Sir Birdwhistle. Jack is often gone for his illegitimate job, and has taken on a rather risky mistress: the Lady Sadie Astor, a noblewoman living outside of London. Kitty tries not to care - this is not the first time Jack has been unfaithful. She knows he loves her first and foremost, and will come back to her. An unthinkable tragedy comes again in 1882, when Phoebe is poisoned by a young man named Horace Reilly. Jesse stole the body of Horace's mother, and he has sought revenge by coming for who he loves most. She dies childless, and Jesse is devastated by her death. He feels he's entirely responsible, he vows to cut off his criminal life style, and tries to start anew as a blacksmith, the profession he and Jack had been trained in. Jack pities his brother, but isn't happy with his decision: Jack's left to work alone now. Not that he's working much - he's been staying home to console Kitty and their sons. Ned was especially close to his Aunt Phoebe, and he doesn't understand how someone could do this to her. Kitty, Jack, and Jesse don't know how to tell the boys of their father and uncle's illegal activities. Back home, Henry falls deeply in love with a young girl his age. Her name is Enid Ackerman, and she's the daughter of one of Henry's teachers. Soon, he approaches his and her parents about the possibility of marriage. Deborah thinks it's ridiculous, and Agostino finds it very cute, but nothing serious. Mr. Ackerman and Simon take a different path when they realize that Henry marrying Enid would give Henry better chances at jobs and a better quality of life, when not with his mother. They agree to the young lover's plan, and Henry and Enid are married in the spring.
