Power. Loyalty. Betrayal. A colony on the brink of revolution.
In the spring of 1674, Nathaniel Bacon arrives in Virginia seeking opportunity and a prosperous future. Wealthy, ambitious, and well-connected, he quickly becomes entangled in the political tensions that threaten to tear the colony apart.
As conflict grows between settlers, Native tribes, and the colonial government led by Governor Sir William Berkeley, Bacon finds himself at the center of one of America's earliest rebellions. Personal ambition, political corruption, divided loyalties, and the pursuit of justice collide in a struggle that will forever shape Virginia's history.
Richly researched and vividly written, A Forlorn Hope brings the events of Bacon's Rebellion to life through compelling characters, authentic historical detail, and dramatic storytelling.
Perfect for readers who enjoy:
- American Colonial History
- Historical Fiction
- Revolutionary America
