In the commission of that service, he finds himself in Colonial America, where he experiences love, friendship, joy, despair, and, in due course, adventure and possibility. Love and war; life and death; friendship and jealousy. Queen Anne's War in 1710 provides the backdrop for many captivating dynamics to unfold in order to introduce Captain Miles Stuart Ransom-The Queen's Captain.
