Description
Scotland 1698. A nation on its knees, crippled by famine, poverty and economic ruin. Desperate to reverse their fortunes, the Scots embark on an audacious plan to establish a colony on the untamed shores of the Darien Peninsula. Jamie Buchanan, a criminal lawyer fleeing Glasgow's underworld, reluctantly finds himself aboard the fleet of ships bound for Panama, alongside nine hundred other souls chasing the promise of a new beginning. What awaits is a world more savage than they ever imagined. As desperation grows, the settlers find themselves caught between duty, ambition and survival. In a land where fortunes rise and fall with the tide, how far will you go to outrun the past? This is an imagining of one of the truly astounding episodes of Scottish history. An extraordinary tale of a small country punching above its weight and the men and women at the heart of it.
