1812 and the fate of Europe lies in the hands of newly appointed
Commodore Hornblower . . . Dispatched to northern waters to protect
Britain's Baltic interests, Horatio Hornblower must halt the
advance of Napoleon's empire into Sweden and Russia. But first he
must battle the terrible Baltic weather: fog, snow and icebound
waterways; overcome Russian political and commercial intrigues;
avoid the seductive charms of royalty as well as the deadly reach
of assassins in the imperial palace; and contend with hostile
armies and French privateers. With the fate of Europe balanced on a
knife edge, the responsibility lies heavy on a Commodore's
shoulders ... This is the eighth of eleven books chronicling the
adventures of C. S. Forester's inimitable nautical hero, Horatio
Hornblower. 'A recipe for pure pleasure' Bernard Cornwell
