ABOUT
THE SOTWEED SMUGGLER
The Sotweed Smuggler, the 2010 historical fiction winner
of the Houston Writer’s Guild, tells a story of suspense. Will Sherewell, the
son of a prosperous merchant marine captain, learns when his father’s will is
read, that he has inherited his ship. Living with his pious mother, he has
little knowledge of sailing and anticipates a majestic vessel. Instead, he
finds The Emperor’s Dictum aka The King’s Dick, notorious for smuggling sotweed
and whiskey between Devonshire and Scotland.
Will yearns to be like his father and sails the Dick,
enduring ridicule, fierce storms, pirate attacks, and curses of legendary
fairies and ghosts, while finding companionship with his runaway brother and
discovering the woman he wishes to marry. In spite of his father’s spying,
treachery, murder, and Scottish border intrigue, Will learns he served Scotland
with honor defeating the outlaw MacGregor Clan.
With the new knowledge, he believes his father is their
captive. He receives a Scottish certificate with a handwritten notation “dead.”
Did he at last find the truth? Will must choose to accept the veracity of the
document, or launch a futile one-man attack on a MacGregor stronghold.
Reluctantly accepting his father’s death, he sails home to his new wife at
Mothercombe Bay.
