I couldn't find anything on the internet about madmaidens. What is it?
Mark Brownlow
Ah, a figment of my imagination. A rare digestif with a questionable name and dubious provenance, purchased by Sir William Lucas from "under the counter" at one of his favourite London stores.
On a more serious note, I kept places, street names etc. as historically accurate as possible based on old maps and literature. Most shop names in the novel are imagined, though their locations are time-appropriate. Book titles are a mix of real and invented.
