Filled with high-seas intrigue and sharp tensions, this nautical
novel takes an intense voyage into the heart of Napoleonic-era
Africa. The year is 1819 and Captain Adam Bolitho has been sent on
an urgent but risky mission to make a fast passage from Plymouth to
Freetown, West Africa, with secret orders for the senior officer
stationed there. Due to the slave trade being declared illegal,
ships in every harbor are waiting to be scrapped and officers have
been cut loose without hope of future commands, thus Adam soon
finds himself the object of envy and jealousy. In Africa he
discovers unexpected allies and faces an enemy far more powerful
and ruthless than any he has known before.
