Wrongfully dismissed. Drawn into a deadly game of espionage. Caught between empires on the brink of revolution.
Jamaica, 1773.
After being falsely dismissed from the British Royal Navy, Lieutenant Owen Spence finds himself stranded in Jamaica with little hope and even fewer prospects. Forced to rebuild his life, he takes work along the island's coast, but the harsh realities of slavery leave him searching for a different path.
A chance reunion with a long-lost uncle offers exactly that: command of a merchant vessel trading across the Caribbean and the American colonies. But Owen soon discovers that his uncle is secretly working for the British Foreign Office - and wants him to do the same.
As revolutionary tensions spread across the Atlantic, Owen is thrust into a dangerous world of spies, shifting loyalties, and hidden conspiracies. With French and American agents plotting against Britain, he must risk everything to uncover the truth before countless lives are lost.
A thrilling historical adventure filled with espionage, romance, and high-seas intrigue during the turbulent years leading to the American Revolution. Perfect for readers who enjoy fast-paced historical adventures, naval fiction, political intrigue, and richly atmospheric Caribbean settings. Suspenseful, adventurous, and packed with danger, deception, and unforgettable characters.
