Rescued from despair by his close friend, Renzi, Kydd finds life increasingly difficult when he is framed and dismissed from his ship. The pair eke out a pitiful existence in Guernsey, where, in a moment of desperation, Renzi offers his services to the Prince de Bouillon and becomes embroiled in covert operations. Meanwhile, Kydd accepts the captaincy of a privateer and is soon taking many prizes. Kydd longs to rejoin his rightful place in the navy, however, and when he gets his chance, he risks all for revenge and restoration. Average Rating:

This story picks up where "The Admiral's Daughter" leaves off, with Kydd in agony over the loss of his bride to be. He goes from low to lower as his career is driven upon the rocks and he must use all of his ability, strength and character to overcome these obsticles. His friend and ...

Kydd's despair and suffering drag him to the edge of the abyss and Renzi is unable to help, though he is desperate to assist Kydd. We continue to see Kydd as a sympathetic and admirable character. Stockwin again delivers another voyage into the Napoleonic era and a world far different than ours, but peopled with characters we recognize all around us. The usual fascinating bits of history, the historical ... Read More
