About All’s Well That Ends Sufficiently by Mark Saunders

“All’s Well that Ends Sufficiently” is a comic romp set in Merry Old England. The year is 1560, give or take, and the town is Thatwhich, an up-and-coming market town south of London. When Thatwhich native Henry Goodenough, a self-proclaimed bard, ends his apprenticeship with the Privy Council in London, he returns home to marry childhood sweetheart Lady Penelope. Alas and alack, the course of true love never runs smooth. Penelope’s father is the Right Worshipful Mayor of Thatwhich and is overly protective of his family. To complicate matters further — and unknown to Henry — she suffers from an undefined illness.
