The Split continues the gripping saga of two Irish brothers-turned-American privateers, navigating the treacherous tides of the Revolutionary War. Fleeing from British oppression in Ireland, the Flynns build a new life in the American colonies while seeking justice and vengeance. Now established as privateers with the Independent Freighting Company, they face new dangers from both the British Navy and internal threats as the war escalates.

Set against the dramatic backdrop of the early Revolutionary War—from the bombardment of Norfolk to the strategic battles at Moore’s Creek and the siege of Boston—this installment blends historical fact with rich fictional detail. Tension rises as personal sacrifice, covert missions, and brutal skirmishes test the Flynns’ loyalty, resilience, and ingenuity. With deadly ambushes, espionage, and frontier warfare, Book 5 captures the chaotic and courageous fight for independence through the eyes of those who lived it.
