Incensed by this, the British government, once the driving force behind slavery, turns from poacher to gamekeeper when it forms The African Squadron, a small fleet of ships tasked with capturing the traders and freeing their captives. Upon HMS Virtuous sails Midshipmen William Bound, a son of a former slaver, and his good friend Midshipman Sani Bello, once a captured slave, now helping to free those chained.
