Summary
It is the war of 1812 and Jack Aubrey and his tetchy, sardonic friend Stephen Maturin set sail across the South Atlantic to intercept a powerful American frigate outward bound from Boston to play havoc with the British whaling trade.… It is a commission after Jack's own heart, and best of all he's given his much-loved ship "Surprise" - reprieved from the breaker's yard because of her exceptional sailing qualities. Sequel to "Treason's harbour" (DC31586). Followed by "The reverse of the medal" (DC31583). 1997. (Jack Aubrey ; 10)
