My Lord Duke

A genteel gathering at the Home Secretary’s club quickly turns from leisurely golf chatter to a heated debate over a startling claim: a long‑lost Duke may be living in the Australian outback. The conversation spirals through polite gossip, political duty, and the uneasy realization that an ancient title could rest on a distant, unexpected heir. As the aristocrats wrestle with the implications, the atmosphere crackles with a mix of curiosity, embarrassment, and the faint thrill of scandal.

Enter Claude Lafont, a poet‑turned‑political operative whose quick wit and restless spirit drive him to uncover the truth before the season’s festivities fade. He must navigate the rigid expectations of noblesse oblige, the baffling clues sent from abroad, and his own longing for artistic freedom. Listeners are invited to follow Claude’s first steps on a journey that promises both witty repartee and the tantalizing promise of a hidden lineage waiting to be revealed.
