The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh

By day, a country parson...by night, the phantom rider "The Scarecrow!" A poor 18th century English coastal farming community survives the King's ruinous taxes thanks to a smuggling ring created by its masked leader "The Scarecrow." He is actually Dr. Christopher Syn, a country priest (vicar) by day who leads the rebel ring against the King's naval press gangs by night. The ring's success leads King George to order the Royal Army's General Pugh to capture and execute the ringleaders. It is a battle of wits and action that The Scarecrow must win, to save not only his own life, but those of the men he leads.
