Set in the early 19th century amid the ships and seamen of a nascent United States Navy, Lieutenant Matty Graves is recovering from his ordeal during the slave rebellion in the French Caribbean colony of Saint-Dómingue when he is ordered to Washington to answer questions about the death of his former captain. On home soil he must deal with the mystery and shame surrounding his birth as well as the attractions of his best friend's sister. But when he is offered a command of his own, he seizes the opportunity to seek his fortune and make a name for himself, even if it means destroying those closest to him.
Broos Campbell is the author of No Quarter and War of Knives and has served as a crew member of the Lady Washington, a restored tall ship. He lives in Los Angeles.
"Nautical adventure fans will welcome Campbell's third novel [about] intrepid Matty Graves. Graves proves equally resourceful at navigating bureaucratic [U.S. Navy] minefield[s] and steering a steady course through . . . the Caribbean." -- Publishers Weekly
