    About this series

    After having returned from captivity, Martha Hazlett agrees to marry Jacob Fite. Jacob and Martha leave Jamestown and sail for England so Martha can confront the aunt and uncle who mistreated her, and claim the inheritance her dead parents left. While in England, they stumble into a case of political intrigue that reflects on them badly. They flee England and sail for the West Indies where Martha kills a French Pirate captain who tried to seduce her. They escape from Jamaica bound for Jamestown, but soon find themselves shipwrecked with a band of pirates with more than survival on their minds...

      Martha Hazlett, young, slight and pretty, escapes from a position of near slavery in England and boards a ship for the colonies in America where wives are needed. Upon arrival, she is selected for marriage by a gentleman old enough to be her father and wisked off to his plantation on the edge of the wilderness. She makes the best of a bad situation until the plantation is raided by Indians and she becomes a captive. Her only hope for rescue is from the men at the Jamestown settlement, but it is Jacob Fite, the Woodsman, who is best qualified.
