Story
A dark secret hangs over the Caribbean. Britain is at war with Napoleon, amid this chaos, a shadowy network acts against the common good. Lives hang in the balance while a young and ambitious lieutenant takes his new assignment aboard the H.M.S Valor. Circumstances soon lead him down a path, where he must weigh traditional judgement carefully. With sword and pistol in hand, he will confront his fate, where things are not as simple as they first appear, and the path of honor looks an awful lot like treason.

But Carlisle has additional problems unique to his colonial origins.

Story
1878: When his family loses their home, to Jack Roberts, who has grown up hearing stories of the Crimean war and the magnificent charge of the Heavy Brigade, the choice between working in a dangerous factory or enlisting in the army and putting on the famed red uniform is an easy one. But when fighting for Queen and Country takes him far from home to defending a small mission station from overwhelming numbers, it is anything but easy and bravery and stoicism take on new meaning.
