When Captain Alvaro Tillford is chosen for a covert mission, delivering £50,000 of gold to the colony of Georgia, he has no idea the «secret agent» he is supposed to be meeting is his best friend&apos;s brother-in-law – or that he has just been hanged for treason against the Crown.
<br/>
Now the British Authorities in Georgia are after Alvaro&apos;s family in earnest; the Naval Authorities in Jamaica are after Alvaro&apos;s skin for the mission failure; and Alvaro is after the men who set him up.
<br/>
With the aid of his new friend, the brilliant Lord Hawthorne, Alvaro sets out to expose a treasonous smuggling ring with links all the way to the highest authorities in London.
<br/>
Can Alvaro protect his family and clear his name, or is he doomed to live with besmirched honour, as a lowly colonial captain?
