First draft
The Salt Road to Cádiz
In 1808, a Portsmouth dock clerk is drawn into a covert run to the Spanish coast when a cargo of naval stores turns out to conceal something far more dangerous than contraband. As war spreads and loyalties blur, he must cross hostile waters, outwit smugglers and officers alike, and decide how much of himself he is willing to lose to get one desperate message through.
