Bruges, 1658. Damian Seeker has allowed England to believe him dead and is living under cover as a carpenter while watching the Royalist court in exile. Four men are preparing to carry a fortune to Charles Stuart, but one has secretly agreed to betray the others to Seeker.

An assassin is sent from England to identify and kill the informant, threatening to expose Seeker as well. As Cromwell’s regime weakens and competing exiles prepare for a possible restoration, Seeker must protect his source, discover which courier is disloyal and prevent the operation from destroying the identity that keeps his family safe.
