The thirteenth volume in the popular John Pearce Adventures set on the high seas
1795: Just as Lieutenant John Pearce feels that he has been freed from an old foe, a new one takes his place. In the face of fresh antagonism, and with complications in his relationship with the recently widowed Emily Barclay, Pearce must juggle personal difficulties with the call of service.
Aboard HMS Flirt, Pearce and his Pelicans soon join the squadron led by Horatio Nelson on a reconnaissance which results in the destruction of a key French battery - though the success is short-lived. In raids ashore, split loyalties, and bloody sea fights, Pearce must show bravery and resource to ensure his survival and return to Emily. Only luck and Pearce's fierce appetite for battle can save them from the perils ahead.
