Thomas Paine Kydd is in Halifax enjoying the recognition and favour of his fellow officers when Tenacious is summoned to join Horatio Nelson's taskforce on an urgent reconnaissance mission.
Intelligence suggests the French Revolution is about to set the Mediterranean ablaze,but Bonaparte's fleet is nowhere to be found.Nelson and his 'Band of Brothers' begin a desperate search for him.Kydd's newfound ambition fuels his desire to be at the forefront of the hunt.But with power comes responsibility; with responsibility,accountability. Friendships are tested,lives are lost,and the war is a long way from being won.Kydd will face his greatest
challenge ever amidst bloodstained seas.
And defeat will mean humiliation - or death. Packed full of seafaring detail and historical fact,Stockwin's world of storms,danger and rip-roaring adventure on the high seas is so real it is hard to believe the book is fiction and it is harder still to put it down.6th novel in the series.

Reviews

On May 26 2012, Hughescorporation said:
A rip-roaring yarn from a consummate story teller. Julian Stockwin gets better and better. From his first book Kydd, to the latest, his style has become finely honed and you just want the stories to go on and on.Watch Stockwin closely, in my opinion he ranks up there with Patrick O'Brian and C S Forester.
