A modern sailor is recruited by the Royal Navy and finds himself on
the deck of HMS Imprieuse in 1813, as she sails into battle against
overwhelming odds. At stake are $5 billion in gold and the fate of
the modern world. Think of it as Captain Kirk meets Captain Jack
Aubrey: a moral tale, light-hearted and filled with action, yet
rich in authentic historical and nautical detail. Napoleon's Gambit
is set in exotic locations aboard the world's most advanced yacht
and on old wooden warships. Its love-story, sword-fights,
sea-battles, pirates and storms at sea add tension to an
unpredictable and satisfying plot.
