Riding
The successful smuggler, John Smith has become a highwayman to safeguard his inland trade. Riding the roads as the Yellowhammer, he makes both friends and enemies as he robs the rich and powerful.
Yet his old companion Bess is in danger when the eccentric Lady Charlotte finds out who she is, and Lord Fitzwarren employs a killer to hunt Smith down. In a story full of backstabbing, cheating and deceit, Smith is in danger of being outmaneuvered by an expert.
With the killer on his heels, Smith has to toe the line between survival and keeping Bess safe. But can he manage to escape with his life, and his fortune, as he turns from dancing on the waves to riding the king's highways?
