Sailing Toward the Tempest

De: Kent M. Schwendy

Narrado por: Brian Prosser

Early in the French Revolutionary War, a young British naval officer, Lieutenant Joseph Duncan, finds himself unexpectedly in charge of a powerful frigate. Sailing alone in the Caribbean Sea with no one to ask for advice, he makes a fateful decision to engage a superior enemy force. Although Duncan is ultimately victorious in the fierce battle, the cargo found on the French ships attracts the attention of the Foreign Service.

Soon Duncan is thrust into the world of espionage, spies, and politics. Confirmation of his temporary promotion hinges on competing factions within the highest levels of government. He forms an unlikely friendship with a rash young Marine officer with a murky background. Together they seek answers that could expose treason, and along the way, learn the French are not their only enemies.

A wonderful sea adventure.

Not a typical book that I normally read. However I was completely pulled into the story and the wonderful characters. The naval battles were well written and it felt like I was on the ship. This book is a wonderful step back into time to a world almost forgotten. I am hopeful that the story will be continued soon.
