Book
The Captain of Venice
First published 2026
After an unpaid papal campaign and service as a pawn in the rivalry between Venice and Genoa, William Gold considers abandoning military life. News of an Anglo-French truce and unrest in Florence, however, creates another market for experienced captains and offers him a command under a former leader.
The chance to reunite with the noblewoman who shared his previous campaign adds a private motive to the return. William enters a contest in which republican politics, mercenary contracts and old loyalties are inseparable, and must decide what kind of captain he will be when retirement, love and duty all demand different choices.
