June, 1781. On the dock in Deptford, the body of a man with a slave brand, hanging from a hook, is discovered.
A few days later, Captain Harry Corsham — a war hero, beginning a promising career in Parliament — is visited by the sister of an old friend.
Her brother, the passionate abolitionist Ted Archer, was planning to expose the truth that could cause irreparable damage to the British slave industry. He claimed that people were trying to kill him, and now he has disappeared...
To find out what happened to Ted, Harry is forced to take up his friend's investigation and penetrate the heart of the conspiracy that Ted uncovered.
