His uncle Solomon Makepeace took his aunt and her family on a sea trading voyage, and they were killed by the Golden Goliath and his crew. Felix' mother died of shock and grief, and his brothers died of illness. Four years later, when Felix was eight, his father died.
Felix went to work in the county workhouse. Various people took him up for his talents-singing and drawing. He continued to do odd jobs for people until he met Art.

While being chased by an angry mob who thinks that Felix is the notorious Highwayman Cuckoo Jack, Felix is rescued by Art and her crew. He secretly plots to turn them in to the English authorities, but later falls in love with Art and saves her life at her hanging.
