You'll never find him. Never trap him. Never see him. Arrows will fly, swords will gleam, lances thrown, laws declared, bounties issued. And you'll never know his name or his face. Our merrymen will pass on his name, some will even take it as their own. History has no room for an outlaw like him. But legend will thrive off his name. We will leave you puzzled, for he will be a misnomer which in turn will make you think he is always someone else. Maybe a William or a Henry. We will always protect him. Who is he you ask? I AM ROBIN HOOD. A Robin Hood story, told through the eyes of his unknown & forgotten sister, Rose of Loxely.

When she arrives with her parents in Milton after her father takes a job there, Margaret Hale, with the prospect of adapting to a new life ahead of her, catches sight of a man in the street that looks like a "perfect stranger". However, on an errand to speak to the family's landlord, Margaret finds this romantic image shattered when she finds that her perfect stranger is not so perfect after all. For John Thornton, both the Hales' landlord and proprietor of the Milton Hotel, this first encounter with Margaret has an equally profound impact when she catches him arguing with his brother-in-law. He knows that he must try and rectify her bad opinion of him - but first she has to agree to talk to him.

"This is the face that is loved by two opposing men – both foes - both of whom are loved in return. This is the face that is shared; impersonal to but mine self – this is her face, too. Your face; your body – the only things that you can truly call yours and yours only – and mine are shared with another. It is unfair and unjust, how so many others may observe their reflection and think: “This is me”, and I shall forever be forbidden to proclaim so – truly, at least." So, you think you know the story of Robin Hood and his beloved maid? Think again, because there's always two sides to a story.
