    About this ebook

    The six stories in this collection take you into a world where a battle was being fought between the Excise-men and well organised gangs of smugglers. violence, murder and corruption were commonplace as Arthur Gray led his so called “Free Traders” to become the most notorious smugglers in the country.
    Gray however, had a challenger, a younger, more violent man, Thomas Kingsmill. Unafraid to torture or kill to maintain the business, Kingsmill rose to become the most wanted of them all.
    Set in south east England in the 1700’s and based on real people and real events; come join me in a time when "the law" meant the law of the Gangs. And where speaking out put your life in danger and your family threatened.
