This delightful lesbian romp set in Elizabethan England captures the adventures of Moll Cutpurse, a swashbuckling heroine, upholder of the rights of women, as she pits her wits against Puritans and tricksters, travels with the gypsies, rescues a near-victim of the anti-witchcraft hysteria, and cheats the wealthy out of their ill-gotten gains -- with help from her lifelong friend and lover, Bridget, the apothecary.
