Rogues In Paradise
In Empire’s Shadow: Britain’s Laboratory for Slavery and the Island That Transcended It
Voices, Empire, and Beyond Paradise
A bold, humorous, and deeply human exploration of Caribbean identity, colonialism, and lived experience.
Bursting with wit, insight, and unexpected truths, Rogues In Paradise examines how empire shaped identity — and how people reshaped identity in return.
This is not simply a story about history.
It is about identity as it is lived, tested, performed, and revealed.

Voices
Each voice captures a moment — sometimes humorous, sometimes sharp — but always revealing.
Example: Pompasettin
All Style & No Substance Leads To A Fall
He assumed his fancy attire gave him priority,
but he was not expecting the tongue-lashing he got.
In this true story of island social etiquette,
knowing your place — and being reminded of it — becomes a hard lesson learned.
Beneath the Humour: Empire’s Shadow
Beyond the humour lies something deeper.
These stories reflect how empire shaped:
- Social hierarchy
- Behaviour and expectations
- Ideas of status and belonging
Even in moments of humour, deeper truths emerge — about identity, survival, status, and how empire shaped everyday life
Example: Barbados-Born Sam Lord – An Ingenious Pirate
Hear it from the Lord himself. In this fantasy tale, Sam Lord tells you all you want to know about his ruthless charm and defiance of the law. He is credited as the most creative pirate of his time. Some say his treasures still lie buried in tunnels below Sam Lord’s Castle.
