Together they embark on a voyage which, if successful, might just restore Aubrey to the rank, and the raison d'etre, whose loss he so much regrets. Fate is fickle and few people can ever truly be trusted, but has Jack Aubrey's luck run out? 'Patrick O'Brian is unquestionably the Homer of the Napoleonic wars.' JAMES HAMILTON PATERSON 'My hero is Patrick O'Brian. It's basically impossible to write that well.' DAVID MAMET
