Retribution
“The is nothing better than a really great book and this is one of the great ones.”
The Mayflower separatists in New England are deemed intransigent. Other settlements are attempted. They fail. Why?
Isaac was there, sent to support the attempts. His efforts are frustrated by the incompetence and duplicity of the people with whom he has to deal.
This second book in the Stanfield Chronicles series continues with Isaac’s spirit of adventure, his courage, and ingenuity being fully tested, together with his fascination and respect for the native peoples he meets.
Isaac’s life consists of blue water sailing adventures, kidnapping, smuggling, pirates and torture, on two continents, from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea.
Issac also has to learn to love again and rebuild the family he thought he had lost.

About the author
David Tory
5 books26 followersI spent over 30 years in the computer industry, starting in the UK in 1962. This was followed by 13 years with the Essex County Community Foundation which I co-founded in 1998. I live on Cape Ann, Massachusetts, with Helen, my wife of 48 years.
After retiring from ECCF, I felt the urge to research the origins of philanthropy in New England. My research uncovered facts about the early settlements here that appeared to be generally unknown. As I delved deeper, the character Isaac Stanfield evolved to become the observer and participant in that early history.
Boats have been a part of my life from an early age. After moving to the United States in 1980, Helen and I spent over 30 years sailing our 37′ Pearson. We fell in love with the coast of Maine, its history, the bays, islands, fog, and abundant wildlife.
