1790 and England in on the cusp of war with revolutionary France. Lieutenant James Hayter has achieved his heart's desire - his first independent command, His Majesty's Hawk, ten guns. But his happiness is tempered by the knowledge that his former captain and friend, William Rennie, has been left on the beach after the failure of the Rabhet expedition the pervious year. 

But it is not long before spy master Sir Robert Greer disturbs Rennie's imposed retirement with a sinister offer that will see Rennie hastening to his former subordinate in Portsmouth. Together they have to tackle one of the most sensitive and dangerous missions of the phoney war, to intercept a contraband  runner, and capture her captain. But as with all matters orchestrated by Greer, the mission is about a lot more than capturing a few barrels of brandy and a wanted criminal. In fact, it is soon evident that the very security of the nation depends on Rennie and Hayter's success.

43 parts Complete

Eliza Banes, her ambition for adventure and her penchant for trouble, have often been trying on her poor mama's nerves. All her mother desires is for Eliza to be married and settled, but Eliza has other plans. Seizing an opportunity to stow away on a merchant ship to live out her dreams of seeing the world, Eliza has no idea what she is getting herself into. What she thought would be a harmless adventure sees her experience new challenges, rowdy sailors, evil pirates, and it brings her face to face with the surliest sea captain with a heart of pure gold. Eliza is about to discover the true meaning of, "be careful what you wish for."
