British warships and pirates of all nations made the waters off New Orleans a dangerous proposition during the War of 1812. Yet for 16-year-old Wade Thayer and his father, running the blockade of Cuba had to be done.
But luck was not with them on the day they lost the Delta, their armed merchant bark. Chased down by a British man-o'-war, Delta is sunk. That leaves Wade fatherless and in the hands of his enemy. But he knows someday that he will avenge his father's death.
