Jack of All Trades is a swashbuckling action-adventure series starring Bruce Campbell as an American spy at the turn of the 19th century. Jack Stiles is dispatched to an island in the East Indies by President Thomas Jefferson to thwart Napoleon's advances in the region.

A world-class adventurer and rogue, Jack is unenthusiastic about the prospect of such a remote and long-term assignment and even less amused when he learns the details of his cover. He will be serving as personal attaché to the strong-willed young beauty Emilia Rothschild (Angela Marie Dotchin), a wealthy British widow and secret agent for the Crown. Together they embark on secret missions against the callous and egotistical Governor Croque and his much smarter brother - Napoleon.
