Returning to England in 1794, Harry and James witness a violent clash between rival smugglers in the Channel and flee to Deal. The port’s respectable appearance conceals an organised contraband trade protected by intimidation and corruption.

Their attempt to remain uninvolved fails when an unseen opponent decides they know too much. Harry must identify the person directing the violence while navigating a town where witnesses, officials and merchants all have reasons to protect the trade.
