Nearly broke, he has been deemed unacceptable by the parents of the girl he loves, Rose Post. When General Benedict Arnold offers a chance at payment and a letter of marque if he'll help defend Lake Champlain against a British incursion, Daniel decides to take a chance and become a privateer. He'll raid British ships for the cause of freedom, and love.
