Struggling writer, Daniel Baker, grandson of the great Daniel Defoe, wants to make his mark by unravelling the mystery behind the disastrous collapse of plans for a second descent on Britain by Bonnie Prince Charlie following his failed 1745 campaign. This later debacle ended Stuart hopes of controlling British destiny and hastened Charles' decline into drunkenness and sexual dissipation.
But was Charles' inadequacy to take back the throne due to his own shortcomings or, as rumored, was the architect of ruin a turncoat close to the Prince?
Hoping to discover the truth, Baker journeys to Scotland to speak with Alasdair Ruadh, one of two people suspected of being the phantom spy, "Pickle". Many revelations await Baker and the reader.

Light Bob is the story of a British regular soldier, Adam Truworthy, serving in 18th-century America. He is a Light Bob because, for forest warfare, his hair is cropped, his coat is shortened, and his equipment adapted. Before this, he fights under Braddock on the Monongahela and Abercromby at Ticonderoga.
When he joins the Lights, his luck improves. After the successful relief of Fort Pitt, he is sent by Col. Henri Bouquet to take possession of French forts along the Ohio and Mississippi. After a successful river voyage, he emerges from the interior at New Orleans. The command then voyages to Virginia for further orders. Provoked into a deadly duel, Adam must leave the colony. He accepts a post in the Massachusetts Line and we leave him as he exchanges his red coat for a blue.
