The best historical fiction I've read since Hilary Mantel.
Exploration - Book One of The Stanfield Chronicles
Before New England existed, it was a conspiracy - a prize fought over by kings, merchants, and spies. This is the story of the boy who got too close to the truth.
In 1620, the Mayflower sailed for the Hudson River. It never got there. History has never adequately explained why.
Isaac Stanfield knows why - because he was there. Seven years earlier, a fire he never meant to start turned him into a fugitive, fleeing England on a merchant ship. What should have ended his story instead pulled him into the center of one: the secret decade-long scramble to establish New England before rival powers could. As Isaac rises from ship's boy to confidant of the men engineering New England's birth, he witnesses - and survives - the piracy, betrayal, and violence behind a voyage to escape religious persecution that was never as simple as history remembers.
It's also a love story: one that costs him everything he thought he understood about loyalty and home.
