Episode Five - Foundry
Written by Mike Walker

Charles Dickens asks Jack to investigate the death of a young boy at an iron foundry. But the story feels uncomfortably close to home for Dickens and he begins to question his motives. Is he an editor or a novelist? And, of course, he is still completely unaware of just how involved Agnes is with uncovering stories for the paper. Will it stay that way?
