The thrilling true story of how one woman masterminded slave resistance to British rule in eighteenth-century Jamaica - part of the True Adventures series 1720. Blue Mountains, windward Jamaica. In the sweltering heat Captain Shettlewood leads a troop of British soldiers through the thick trees towards the river. They are hunting slaves who have escaped from the brutal plantations. Their mission: to find them, and kill them. But up ahead, hidden among the rocks above the water, a group of men with cutlasses and muskets wait patiently for the instructions of their leader. Queen Nanny is a 'wise woman' with a reputation for ancient obeah magic, and a guerilla fighter with a genius for organisation. So the battle for Jamaica begins, the First Maroon War, in which the maroons - escaped slaves - will make a final, do-or-die stand against the slavers and soldiers of Empire.

Egypt. C17th BC. An army of barbarians has swept through the Empire, destroying everything in its path. Known as the Hyksos, the 'leaders from foreign lands', the invaders have reduced the land of the pharaohs to slavery. Only one woman resists. Fierce, beautiful and courageous, the daughter of the last pharaoh, Ahhotep, refuses to accept defeat. Not far from Thebes, the only city which retains its independence, she establishes a secret military base, training the soldiers who will one day set her country free. Heading an increasingly powerful army, Ahhotep prepares the Egyptians for the final, fateful battle. After a hundred years of occupation and thousands of violent deaths, it looks as though, at last, the Egyptian empire will rise again from the ashes - all thanks to the courage and determination of a woman.

In the north, the barbaric Hyksos still rule with unimaginable brutality. Queen Ahhotep, meanwhile, has recaptured much of the south -- but at a terrible price: her husband has been killed in combat and her elder son, Kames, was mysteriously poisoned. Ahhotep refuses to be crowned pharaoh and prepares her second son, young Amose, to take power instead. Thanks to her, the Egyptians are now ready for the final battle. They lay siege to Avaris, the Hyksos capital -- and once the city is taken, nothing can stop them. After 100 years of occupation and thousands of violent deaths, it looks as though the Egyptian empire may at last rise from the ashes.

Egypt is a shadow of its former self. An army of barbarians, mounted on horse-drawn chariots, has swept through the Empire, destroying everything in its path. Known as the Hyksos, the 'leaders from foreign lands', they have reduced the land of the pharaohs to slavery. Only one city resists: Thebes, where the widow of the last pharaoh, Teti the Small, still reigns. But Teti knows it's only a matter of time before her men succumb to the barbarities of the cruel Hyksos. She has an 18-year-old daughter, however: Ahotep. Fierce, beautiful and courageous, Ahotep will never accept defeat. And so she decides to re-ignite the flame of Egyptian resistance. All by herself.

When Wajeeha Narayan was taken from the harem in the palace of Koch Behar India to be sold as a slave, she knew she had to do what she must to survive. Reinventing herself as Queen, a tough sea-loving pirate, she mastered the whip, sparking fear in her enemies, until tragedy struck. Found washed ashore by Father Samuel Fritz, Queen joined him in his work to save the souls of the tribes found along the Amazon river. When he becomes ill, Queen is caught in a dangerous web of intrigue and must appeal to the kings of Portugal and Spain to save him. Years later, to right the wrongs of her past, she parts with Father Samuel only to end up back on the high seas and then in England and the court of Queen Anne. Unhappy in England, Queen traveled to the American colonies where she lived and worked at the Catholic missions in Maryland. As a free woman of color in a world of slavery, she remained a bastion of strength, instilling her hard won courage and wisdom in her children. When they are brutalized and their freedom is claimed by Father Ashton and the Catholic church, will they find the strength to fight and proclaim the legacy of freedom left to them by their mother?
