From the suffocating darkness of the tin mines to the salt-sprayed cliffs of the Atlantic, John Carter's ascent is the stuff of legend.

In 18th-century Georgian Cornwall, where the law is a suggestion and the sea is a lifeline, young John Carter longs to escape the dust and poverty of the mines. Drawn into the dangerous world of smuggling, piracy, and clandestine trade from the hidden shores of Prussia Cove, he rises from humble miner to master smuggler -- earning a crown he never sought:

The King of Prussia.

But a kingdom built on secrets is a fragile one.

Caught between the righteous fury of his devout Methodist father and the gathering storm of the Napoleonic Wars, John must navigate betrayal, ambition, and the shifting tides of fortune.

As war, piracy, and the shadow of the slave trade threaten everything he has built, he must outwit ruthless enemies, protect his growing empire, and fight to secure his place in a brutal world governed by iron laws and blood-soaked seas.

In a world of smugglers, privateers, and encroaching war, can one man forge his own destiny... or will the sea that made him legendary become his final grave?

Inspired by authentic Cornish folklore, The King of Prussia Cove is a sweeping historical fiction epic of smuggling, rebellion, maritime adventure, and survival on the rugged Cornish coast.

Perfect for readers of historical drama, seafaring adventure, Georgian Britain, and tales of power forged beyond the law.
