Based on a novel written by John over 10 years ago, Smugglers follows the exploits of a young lad captivated by the thrill of his father's illicit trade.  Rocked by personal tragedy, he sets out to escape his meagre lifestyle in defiance of the King.

Of all his adversaries, however - the Royal Dragoon Guards, unscrupulous pirate traders and the Landguard - it is a young lass, a victim of unrequited love, who threatens to seal his fate.  Jack's exploits will take you on an emotional roller coaster as he greets adulthood a little more quickly than most...
