Product Description

Sunday Times

"One of our foremost writers of Naval Fiction."


Book Description

Spring, 1802, and the Peace Treaty of Amiens, signed only a few weeks earlier, is already showing signs of collapse. Britain and France wrangle over the return of colonial possessions won and lost during their long, bloody war and, in the little 64-gun Achates, Vice-Admiral Richard Bolitho sails for America and the Caribbean. Skirting a web of intrigue and treachery, the young flag officer, steeled in the fires of battle, confronts the challenge of his lonely command.

4.0 out of 5 stars Success to the Brave, April 12 2001
By phil massimino "frhearth" (farmingville, new york USA) - See all my reviews
Packed so full of action that I could hardly put the book down. Mr Kent does very well in his attemp to show more of the personal side of the main characters.

3.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable - but the not best of the Bolithos, Feb 19 2001
By Donal A. O'Neill (The Netherlands) - See all my reviews
It would surely have been over-optimistic of Richard Bolitho to have expected that the brief period of the Peace of Amiens might have afforded him a degree of rest and recreation - and, sure enough, he finds himself embroiled in treachery, dilemmas and fights to the death in the West Indies and the North Atlantic. There is action aplenty in this story - almost too much of it - and compared with many of the earlier works in the saga the plot seems a little contrived. Though not the best of the series it is however always entertaining and the usual cast of characters make their appearance and act and develop credibly. Affecionados of Bolitho cannot afford to miss it and will look forward to further defeats of Bonaparte's global ambitions as renewed hostilities gather pace.
