Description
It's 1829 and Dr. William Whitcraft has his hands full. When he's not trying to dream up a cure for hysteria—the scourge of London's polite society—he juggles a busy medical practice, a lovely but demanding fiancée, an over-enthusiastic patient seeking his affections, and the emergence of an ominous rivalry with a dashing fellow professional. Not to mention a secret dalliance of his own with a locally famous procuress. The Five Step Plan is a light-hearted farce, illuminating the hypocritical world of 19th century English society, where one must navigate the bounds of propriety, while mastering the art of clandestine intrigue.

An interesting story, taking place in the time that almost anything that could ail women was called 'hysterics', and thought to be cured by practices like pelvic massage.
The situations Doctor Whitcraft got himself into were both intriguing and sometimes funny. Especially since they made me often wonder how someone practically making women climax all day could be so naïeve. Well, it was a very different time off course.
