David Bowman
- The
- Carthaginian
- explorer
- Hanno
- left
- the
- Mediterranean
- to
- sail
- south.
- Instead,
- the
- grandmother
- of
- all
- storms
- has
- pushed
- him
- north.
- His
- small
- fleet
- of
- war
- galleys,
- battered,
- crews
- exhausted,
- supplies
- depleted,
- are
- pinned
- by
- tide
- and
- wind
- against
- a
- hostile
- shore.
- The
- shore
- is
- lined
- with
- hundreds
- of
- local
- tribesmen
- armed
- to
- the
- teeth.
- He
- doesn't
- speak
- their
- language.
- They
- don't
- speak
- his.
- Only
- one
- man
- speaks
- both.
- An
- itinerant
- trader.
- But
- can
- he
- trust
- him,
- can
- he
- make
- friends,
- allies
- even,
- above
- all,
- can
- he
- retrieve
- his
- fortunes
- and
- get
- home?
- This
- is
- 470BC.
- This
- is
- England.
- Hanno
- doesn't
- know
- that.
- Can
- he
- use
- his
- wits
- and
- his
- charm,
- and
- all
- his
- skills
- to
- win out?
