As the civil war rages on in England, exiled captain Kit Faulkner finds his loyalties torn between family, friends, and nation.
1649. England has been torn asunder by a civil war that has pitted Parliamentarians against Royalists. Cpt. Kit Faulkner, bound to the Royalist cause, has been living in exile for the past four years. Faulkner must now support himself with the tiny rump of the Royal Navy that remains loyal. But his loyalties are torn, partly by the desire of his old patron, Sir Henry Mainwaring, who wishes to return home, and partly by the predatory nature of Prince Charles, who has his eyes on the beautiful Katherine Villiers . . .
