- Prince Alfred, grandson of Queen Victoria, is visiting Toronto and Murdoch is assigned to protect the reckless playboy from Fenian conspiracy.
- With the visit of Queen Victoria's grandson, Prince Alfred, to Toronto, Detective Murdoch and Constable Crabtree are put in charge of security. The Prince is a bon vivant who is particularly fond of parties and pretty girls but his aide, David Jennings, is hard-nosed and demanding. When the police find a dead girl in the park, her tattoos reveal that she may have been a member of the Irish Republican Brotherhood and there may in fact be a plot against the Prince. Murdoch also runs into to an old friend from their days at the seminary who may, or may not, have Republican sympathies as well.—garykmcd
- Detective Murdoch and Constable George Crabtree are charged trough private assistant David Jennings with the security of one of queen Victoria's many grandsons during his Toronto visit. Gentle George pleases dandy prince Alfred, but has a hard time keeping the party-animal out of trouble.

He soon discovers his youth friend Eddie Cullen is their brotherhood's publican.
