This fictional historic thriller is based on a family legend of two young brothers sailing to the American colonies from Ireland while their father was drunk in a tavern and missed the ship. Since nothing more was known about what actually occurred around 1750 when brothers sailed to the colonies, I wrote a fictional thriller to account for why their father might have been left behind. The loss of their mother to smallpox on their small farm in Wales especially devastated Michael, the older boy. He became angry at the world and at God for taking his mother from him and his brother. His father, also devastated at the loss of his wife turned to alcohol and he all but abandoned his boys. When the family could no longer pay rent on their farm after father deserted his children for the tavern, their crooked landlord evicted the family.
