In 1620, more than 100 devout men and women crossed the treacherous Atlantic Sea and proven a colony in the New World where they could create a righteous and Godly society. With no fortuitous companionship of the Wampanoag people and their charismatic leader Massasoit, however, it is doubtful the holy test could have survived. Fifty years later Plymouth Colony hasn't only survived, they have prospered, and more and more Englishmen are immigrating to New England. The blessed alliance with the Wampanoag, however, is in severe jeopardy. Massasoit has passed on along with most of the initial settlers of Plymouth Colony, and their children and grandchildren have very different ideas about their traditional friendship. Thrust in to the center of events is Reverend Israel Brewster, an idealistic young minister with a famous grandfather and a tragic recent. Meanwhile, Massasoit's son, known as "King Philip" by the British, is tormented by both the present and the past. He is seeing the resources and culture of the Wampanoag nation fade away at the hands of the British and desperately wants to restore trust and security to his people. In an environment of religious fervor, devastating sickness, and incessant greed, can the alliance of the forefathers endure? Or will New England have the wrath of tragic, bloody battle?
