THE TEENAGED POCAHONTAS, once happily married with a young child, was kidnapped, raped, impregnated and held hostage by the English in Jamestown for over a year in 1613. Under Reverend Alexander Whitaker's wing, she has learned to read the Good Book, to write and speak in simple clear English before her conversion and baptism to the Christian faith. After her marriage to John Rolfe and the birth of her son, Thomas, Pocahontas, now Lady Rebecca Rolf, prepares to leave for England to deliver the Varnia shipment of tobacco to the smoke shops of London, help recruit more settlers for the New World and attract stockholders for the Virginia Company. A poster child and rock star in London, she will be presented to the King and Queen of England by her sponsors, Lord and Lady De la Warr. We follow day by day in her rediscovered diary to the doorsteps of her probable assassins in a 400 year old cold case, taking the brave and intelligent red princess to her death on March 21, 1617 in Gravesend, England.
