Before he even reaches land, he faces the wrath of pirates, among them the infamous buccaneer Sir Henry Morgan. On land, he discovers another evilslave tradingwhich had become the citys economic lifeline. Driven by conscience rather than greed, he begins a oneman battle to overthrow the citys oligarchies and in turn, reestablish a sense of order in his own life.In Port Royal, Horane Smith offers more than just an exotic tale of piracy and seafaring adventure: he turns the page to an era when human liberty was not a selfdeclared right; when personal gain superceded morality; when trust and loyalty was deeplyrooted in fear.
