Whitstable, 1796. Seventeen-year-old Thomas wants nothing more than to dig bait, walk his dog, Jet, and earn a living. But when a stranger presses a mysterious package into his hands, he’s swept into a deadly game of espionage that will carry him across stormy seas to the heart of Revolutionary France.
Thomas is forced to play a dangerous game - alongside a French officer torn between duty and survival - where every ally could be a traitor and every decision could be his last.
Will Thomas ever return home to pick up where he left off, on his beloved beach, whilst his country’s future hangs in the balance?
