A Horatio Hornblower Tale of the Sea A humiliated and shipless
captive of the French, Horatio Hornblower faces execution unless he
can escape and make a triumphant return to England . . . Forced to
surrender his ship, HMS Sutherland, after a long and bloody battle,
Captain Horatio Hornblower is held prisoner in a French fortress.
Prospects turn bleaker when he learns that he and Lt. Bush are to
be tried and executed in Paris as part of Napoleon's attempts to
rally the war-weary Empire. Even if Hornblower can escape this fate
and make it safe to England, he still faces court-martial for
surrendering his ship. With little hope for the future and little
left to lose, Hornblower throws caution to the wind once more. This
is the seventh of eleven books chronicling the adventures of C. S.
Forester's inimitable nautical hero, Horatio Hornblower. 'A joyous
creation, perfection in words' Conn Iggulden
