Bristol, 1618. Kit Faulkner is a young vagrant orphan, taking life as he finds it in the rough world of the docks. But after an encounter with two gentlemen, his fortunes are changed forever.

Meanwhile, England edges ever closer to civil war, and very soon Kit must choose which side he will fight for…
