Twenty years after the English revolution, the monarchy has been restored and Charles II sits on the throne. The men who conspired to kill his father are either dead or disappeared. Baltasar Balty St. Michel is twentyfour and has no skills and no employment. He gets by on handouts from his brotherinlaw Samuel Pepys, an officer in the kings navy.Fed up with his needy relative, Pepys offers Balty a job in the New World. He is to track down two missing judges who were responsible for the execution of the last king, Charles I. When Baltys ship arrives in Boston, he finds a strange country filled with fundamentalist Puritans, saintly Quakers, warring tribes of Indians, and rogues of every stripe. Helped by a man named Huncks, an agent of the Crown with a mysterious past, Balty travels colonial America in search of the missing judges. Meanwhile, on the other side of the Atlantic, Samuel Pepys prepares for a war with the Dutch that fears England has no chance of winning.Christopher Buckleys enchanting new novel spins adventure, comedy, political intrigue, and romance against a historical backdrop with reallife characters like Charles II, John Winthrop, and Peter Stuyvesant. Buckleys wit is as sharp as ever as he takes readers to seventeenthcentury London and New England.
