Summary
(From the publisher):
April, 1797, Falmouth Bay. As France continues her bitter struggle for supremacy on land and sea, the Royal Navy receives a crippling blow at home: the Great Mutiny at Spithead.
Returning home after eighteen months' service aboard the Euryalus, Flag Captain Richard Bolitho finds himself at the centre of the crisis. And his new commander, it seems, is a man who will brook no interference.
Only when the squadron is drawn to a bloody embrace with the enemy does the Admiral see the strength in Bolitho's trust and care for his men - but by then it is almost too late for any of them.
