'Paints a vivid picture of life aboard the mighty ship-of-the-line'
- Daily Express Napoleon's forces are poised to invade Britain, and
Commander Thomas Kydd's ship is at the forefront of the fleet
defending the English coast. His honour restored after temporary
disgrace in the Channel Islands, and reunited with his ship Teazer,
Kydd seizes the chance to fight for his country. Then Kydd is
abruptly withdrawn from the fleet and sent back to Dover on a
secret mission to guard a mysterious American inventor. Having
worked his way up from press-ganged seaman to captain of his own
ship, Kydd is furious to find he will miss his opportunity to prove
himself in battle. And Kydd's baffled superiors are equally angry
to lose Kydd and his ship at such a dangerous time. Yet Kydd's role
in the approaching war may be the most crucial part he has ever
played. ********************* What readers are saying about
