After the execution of the rebel leaders, Governor General O'Reilly moves Louisiane forward into the future with a series of reforms designed to strengthen and rebuild the colony. His new government deals with social unrest among the citizens and intrigue with Louisiane's English and American neighbors. O'Reilly remains an outsider to the citizens of Louisiane. He is feared by many and respected by the few who come to know him. Although O'Reilly is resisted by some, the future of the citizens and slaves of Louisiane rests in his hands. Will he succeed in his attempt to build a new future for the colony? Success will be measured by how he remains faithful to the wishes of the Spanish King Carlos the third. This novel provides a sense of the chaotic times of the period. The reader is exposed to cultural, social and political clashes existent in the new world of North America.
