The year is 1805. Lord Horatio Nelson has returned to England after the Napoleonic Wars. He plans to rest for a few months, not with his wife but with his mistress Lady Hamilton. Meanwhile, his cousin George Matcham visits and becomes entangled in the affair. Horatio Nelson is loved, but Lady Hamilton is not. The pressure mounts as the French and Spanish combined fleet heads towards England, leading to the legendary Battle of Trafalgar.
