A costume television drama written by Isa Moynihan and based on a true story set in Christchurch in 1871. "Readymoney" Robinson, a dictatorial landowner, engages a Spanish-American quadroon to act as butler for his household of wife and daughters. There follows a tale of sexual jealousy, mental torture, race hatred and murder, climaxing in a courtroom confrontation which exposes the vindictiveness and bigotry of the townspeople.
