When infamous smuggler Martin MacBride returns to Cornwall after
escaping slavery in Algiers, he finds his wife and child have died.
Fuelled by anger, the heartbroken smuggler vows to avenge their
deaths by killing his hated foe, John Cardinham. However, Cardinham
is riddled with a hatred of his own. He is convinced that his
fiancee, beautiful local inn-keeper Josephine Bryant, is in love
with MacBride, and intends to see the smuggler brought to justice -
at an appointment with the gallows. The locals of Cornwall pull
together for their hero in a formidable force against the revenue,
and Cardinham, finding he has his work cut out, hires the services
of notorious privateer, Jose 'Sparky' Vaquero, who proceeds to
double-cross all concerned. Thus begins a twisting, turning journey
of blackmail, obsession and suspicion. But when the stakes are high
and the pressure is on, mistakes are easily made, and
underestimation can prove to be a costly one.
