Description

John Valiant has always moved through life with the confidence of a man born into wealth, his panama hat and silk gaiters marking him as a fixture of high society. When the Valiant Corporation—a pillar of the nation’s finance—collapses in a single, bewildering moment, his polished world shatters like a dropped hat on a polished rug. The shock reverberates through his mind and even his loyal bulldog, leaving him staring out a half‑open window at a spring that suddenly feels anything but certain.

Determined to understand the sudden ruin, John steps away from the comfortable confines of his inherited empire and into a landscape of unexpected challenges. The first act hints at a journey that will carry him from bustling city streets to mysterious countryside estates, confronting old family secrets, daring chases, and enigmatic letters. Listeners can expect a blend of adventure, intrigue, and the quiet resilience of a man who must rebuild his identity piece by piece.
