today.
The series is centered around Declan Harp (Jason Momoa), a
part-Irish, part-Native American outlaw who broke from the Hudson's Bay
Company's after Lord Benton (Alun Armstrong) killed his mother, and is now attempting
to break the company's monopoly on the fur trade in Canada by entering into an agreement
with the Water Walkers (Cree Indians). As Harp fights to undermine the Hudson's
Bay Company's monopoly, Captain Chesterfield (Evan Jonigkeit) under the command
of Lord Benton plot to capture Harp by using information provided by Michael
Smith (Landon Liboiron), a young Irish stowaway. However, Smith's loyalties are
proofing to be questionable.
