The Eleven Thousand

James Parkington, Alec McCain, and Mathias Martin are insurgents and secret operatives - their commander, the Marquis de Lafayette. Troubled by the events in The Flowering Thorn, James Parkington undertakes a secret mission to explore the prisons of New York to discover the conditions under which rebel prisoners are held. Things do not go as planned and soon, instead of observing, James is thrust into a secret world where Colonial soldiers are systematically exterminated by cruelty and neglect and the need to survive turns once honest men into monsters. The Eleven Thousand is based on true accounts of the horrifying truth of the British prison ships of New York's Wallabout Bay.
