Book Description
================
Reinstated to the Navy List, Jack Aubrey engages on a secret mission
with a hand-picked crew in this continuation of the Aubrey-Maturin series
For all Jack Aubrey's life he has triumphed, often sensationally, over
the dangers of the sea and the violence of the enemy. But his rashness,
his guilelessness, his indiscretion have time and time again enabled
his rivals to prevent him reaping his just rewards. The nadir was reached
in The Reverse of the Medal when, the victim of a skilful frame-up,
he was convicted of fraud and struck off the Navy list just as he was
coming within sight of flag rank. The subsequent exposure of the conspiracy,
coupled with his brilliant success in command of a privateer, had brought
him to a position where Their Lordships were more or less bound to reinstate
him. This, as the present book opens, they have done, and he and his
old friend Dr Maturin are sailing on a secret mission with a hand-picked
crew, most of them shipmates from the adventures and lucrative voyages
of earlier years.
