Commencing with a long flashback from the Cape of Good Hope in 1738, it novelizes his adventures in the five years from 1708, when he was a student at the University of Rostock, to 1713, when he signed on with the Dutch East India Company as an adelbors, or midshipman, under the Catalan alias Isacq d'AlguE (of Alghero). He would go by this alias for many years at the Cape, until he admitted his real identity in his last will and testament and asked his children to resume using the surname Dreyer.Isacq fights a fatal duel in Swedish Wismar, flees to London, enters the English secret service under the spymaster-novelist Daniel Defoe, is sent as a secret agent to Herrenhausen, the palace at Hannover of the Elector Georg Ludwig (the future King George I of England), where he is employed by the philosopher Leibniz and imagines himself foiling a Jacobite plot to murder the Elector and his son.
