Book Description
================
The fifteenth Aubrey-Maturin novel in which Jack finds himself re-united
with the Surprise, but dangerously out of touch with his crew All the
elements that have made Patrick O'Brian's astonishing series one of
the most highly praised works in contemporary fiction are here in Clarissa
Oakes -- the narrative grip, the impeccable ear for dialogue, the humour
and the unsurpassed capacity to create and recreate a rich and true
friendship between two men in the late eighteenth-century. Captain Jack
Aubrey sails away from the hated Australian prison colonies in his favourite
vessel the Surprise, pondering on middle age and sexual frustration.
He soon becomes aware that he is out of touch with the mood of his ship:
to his astonishment he finds that in spite of a lifetime's experience
he does not know what the foremost hands or even his own officers are
thinking. They know, as he does not, that the Surprise has a stranger
aboard: and what they, for their part, do not know is that the stranger
is potentially as dangerous as a light in the powder magazine itself.-
