Summary
After discovering six gold Roman coins buried in the mud of the Devil's Dyke, Barnabas Sackett enthusiastically invests in goods that he will offer for trade in America. But Sackett has a powerful enemy: Rupert Genester, nephew of an earl, wants him dead. A battlefield promise made to Sackett’s father threatens Genester’s inheritance. So on the eve of his departure for America, Sackett is attacked and thrown into the hold of a pirate ship. Genester's orders are for him to disappear into the waters of the Atlantic. But after managing to escape, Sackett makes his way to the Carolina coast. He sees in the raw, abundant land the promise of a bright future. But before that dream can be realized, he must first return to England and discover the secret of his father's legacy.

Onwards to the far blue mountains.
Loved it! I’ve read the Sacketts about four times and now listened to it. If you love action and adventure mixed with historical fiction based on fact, then read the series, you’ll love it. It takes you back to a time long long ago.

It's a great backdrop to early settlers in the North American continent
Good characters , an interest storyline and it makes you want to go to the next book, well performed in an accent that I felt matched the characters and the period. I has done also read the book and was convinced by the performance. Very good
