    About this audiobook

    Charles Hayden returns in the thrilling new naval adventure from bestselling author S. Thomas Russell, today's "Patrick O'Brian for a new generation" (Kirkus Reviews). Master and Commander Charles Hayden has received fresh orders that take him and the HMS Themis to the Caribbean, with instructions to meddle with French shipping to the colonies. While en route, they rescue two Spanish castaways who beg for help fleeing from a vengeful family situation-Hayden agrees to do what he can, though it's soon clear his two new guests aren't exactly what they seem. Arriving in the lawless Caribbean seas, Hayden and Themis find themselves torn between the forces of reckless English captains, conflicts between royalist and revolutionary Frenchmen, and Spanish ships that are enemies to both England and France. And when someone very dear to him is kidnapped, Hayden may sacrifice everything in a reckless pursuit to save her ...

      Lots of intrigue and a smashing ending with ships blown up and a large enough " butcher's bill" to satisfy Winston Churchill. A very interesting character is introduced and sadly leaves us. A minor plot about stolen Spanish silver, privateers and treachery consumes the latter part of the book while the French invasion fleet languishes in harbor. An excellent series continues and Charles is still quite young so hopefully, the author will move to the next level.
    • 5/5
      Swashbuckling. I read this book before I read any of the others in the series, and although it would have been nice to get some sort of reference year to when this is going on, it isn't really needed. The united states are referred to as the united states and not the colonies so sometime after US independence, I guess. The african slave trade is in full swing, Britian, spain and france are very much involved in the Caribbean at the time.

      I had a very hard time putting this book down.

      An exciting tale of English and French ships and seamen in the age of sail. The sea erupts with the sound of cannons and clash of swords as two nations fight for control of the Caribbean. The book is full of very exciting depictions of sailing and fighting on the high seas. The love interest comes across a bit weak, although it is essential to set up the main plot of the action. Captain Hayden, of His Majesty’s Royal Navy, is once again at sea. This time he sees what appears to be two Spanish men adrift in the vast waters of the Caribbean. The Spanish at this time are a tentative ally of the British in their fight against the French navy. One of the Spaniards is eventually revealed to be a young senorita in disguise. The rather fetching young lady, Angelita, catches Capt. Hayden’s eye and eventually his heart. The young senorita’s brother, Miguel, will have none of this. He plots to ruin the young couple’s plans for a happy life. As Capt. Hayden returns to sea under his new admiral’s orders, treachery and deceit are working behind his back. Hayden is forced to fight his way back to his young wife, only to find she has been kidnapped by her brother and a French spy. Regardless of the miles of sea that separate them or the number of enemy ships that sail in his way, nothing will stop Hayden from rescuing his lady. The best parts of the book are the rousing, imaginative descriptions of the sea battles as Hayden heats up the Caribbean in search of his love. Book provided for review by Amazon Vine.
