    A guttersnipe who has risen through the ranks of the British army, Ensign Sharpe is sailing home to England from his latest campaign against Napoleon. Anticipating an uneventful voyage, the dashing young maverick discovers the intriguing and very married Lady Grace Hale on board the Calliope. But just as he wins his way into her heart, the ship is fired upon and, suddenly, he finds himself in the thick of one of history's most spectacular incidents: the Battle of Trafalgar.

    Story

    For my taste, this is the perfect novel. It is a story that nowhere disappoints. It sent me to Wikipedia where I gobbled up the articles on Battle of Trafalgar, The Victory, Lord Nelson, and it even motivated me to learn the nautical terms for the sails and masts of the "ships of the line."

    I’ve been whistling Rule Britannia now for two days even though I’m American and proud of it.

    And that Lady Grace, I can’t clear my mind of her!

    Say the name 'Enron' and most people believe they've heard all about the story that imperiled a presidency, destroyed a marketplace, and changed Washington and Wall Street forever. But in the hands of Kurt Eichenwald, the players we think we know and the business practices we think have been exposed are transformed into entirely new, and entirely gripping, material. Conspiracy of Fools is an all-true financial and political thriller of cinematic proportions.

    Endlessly fascinating. I listened to it twice.
