Almost six months after the Battle of Grantsburg, things for the Dark Horse Commando Squad are rather quiet. The strenuous training for the next expectant offensive operation has begun to wear on them. Captain Fischer, the commander of the squad, sends some on leave, while he tries to get the attention of his superiors that they're ready to go. One of those on leave is Lieutenant Madison Brookes, who is heading back to New Omaha to visit her mother. But while there, she learns from her mother, a High Council member in the UN, of a new secret weapon about to be revealed at a bond drive in a couple of days. Could this new secret weapon be the trump card humanity desperately needs?

Poseidon's Curse interprets the American Revolution from the vantage point of the Atlantic Ocean. Christopher P. Magra traces how British naval impressment played a leading role in the rise of Great Britain's seaborne empire, yet ultimately contributed significantly to its decline. Long reliant on appropriating free laborers to man the warships that defended British colonies and maritime commerce, the British severely jeopardized mariners' earning potential and occupational mobility, which led to deep resentment toward the British Empire. Magra explains how anger about impressment translated into revolutionary ideology, with impressment eventually occupying a major role in the Declaration of Independence as one of the foremost grievances Americans had with the British government.
