Devilwood

Synopsis

In a lawless, Godless outpost of 18th Century England, Highwayman Gabriel enters a dark contract with enigmatic stranger Dante. Matters are complicated by Rossetti, a new-comer whose beauty catches Gabriel's eye as much as her chilling tales intrigue his ear.

Neither she, nor Dante, are what they seem.
