In the summer of 1775 Captain Isaac Biddlecomb finds himself once again commanding a man-of-war, the brig Charlemagne, of the fledgling Rhode Island Navy. Biddlecomb is constantly playing cat-and-mouse with the powerful H.M.S. Rose, while his doubts grow concerning his abilities as a naval officer. Fifty miles north, General George Washington discovers that the American forces near Boston have just 36 barrels of gunpowder. Desperate, he adopts the plan of a group of Rhode Island patriots; send a ship to Bermuda to take the powder there. But the plan is a trap, set by a traitor among the men, and in Bermuda Biddlecomb and his ship are captured by the frigate H.M.S. Glasgow. When Washington learns of the treachery, he sends his Aide-de-Camp Major Fitzgerald to hunt down the traitor. Meanwhile, Biddlecomb using his nerve and guile, launches a plan to regain the powder.
