Set in Boston, Massachusetts in 1775, where the lives of Thomas Gage, the British governor of Massachusetts, his wife Margaret, together with their black slave, Sara, become inexorably intertwined. Having risen through the army, Thomas has known many battles but the War of Independence is different, as there are personal passions and beliefs involved and being a British governor with an American wife means that allegiances are sharply divided. Thomas seeks solace through teaching the pretty Sara, the simple pleasures of reading and writing but conflict, heartbreak and death are close at hand, threatening to engulf all involved, C3A.
