Overview

The American Revolutionary War is in full swing, with Yankee privateers swarming in British waters. For ship-owners like Captain William Kite of Liverpool, ruin was only a gunshot away. When Providence strikes the embattled Kite yet again, he is desperate to restore his fortune and travels to London to try a final throw of the dice. But against the vested interest of the Honourable East India Company, Kite is unable to proceed and bankruptcy looms. Humiliated, embittered and pursued by private demons, Kite returns to break the news to his beautiful American wife, Sarah, when a chance encounter offers Kite a slender opportunity to reverse his luck.
