It is 1777 and the American War for Independence is at an impasse. The struggling new nation’s need for help sends Benjamin Franklin to Paris to seek an alliance with France. How can he convince the French that the American battle is worth joining?

Franklin puts Peace of God in command of the sloop of war Hornet with orders to harass British ships in their own waters.
