Son of a feared fighting man, Barnabas Sackett inherited his
father’s fiery temper, sense of justice and warrior skills.
Declared an outlaw in his native England, Barnabas set his daring
sights on the opportunities of the New World. The ruthless piracy
of the open seas and the unknown dangers of the savage American
wilderness lay before him. And so did the thrill of discovery and
the chance to establish a bold new future if he survived. “From the
Paperback edition.”
After discovering six gold Roman coins buried in the mud of
the Devil’s Dyke, Barnabas Sackett enthusiastically invests in
goods that he will offer for trade in America. But Sackett has a
powerful enemy: Rupert Genester, nephew of an earl, wants him dead.
A battlefield promise made to Sackett’s father threatens Genester’s
inheritance. So on the eve of his departure for America, Sackett is
attacked and thrown into the hold of a pirate ship. Genester’s
orders are for him to disappear into the waters of the Atlantic.
But after managing to escape, Sackett makes his way to the Carolina
coast. He sees in the raw, abundant land the promise of a bright
future. But before that dream can be realized, he must first return
to England and discover the secret of his father’s legacy.
