O'Hara, the only justice of the peace in the Gaspé, sets sail for Restigouche to resolve the dispute between William Smith, a logger, and the Micmac natives who claim that Smith is cutting timber on their hunting and trapping lands. Smith accuses the Natives of being traitors and passing information to the American privateers about ships from the Gaspé carrying valuable cargo. O'Hara's ship is attacked and confiscated by an American trader turned privateer forcing O'Hara and his crew to row back to Gaspé in a skiff. On the long voyage home, O'Hara learns that the villagers think that if the American rebels capture Quebec, O'Hara will side with the Americans because he is Irish and his wife's family are Americans.
