The Admiral's face was grim as he gave Commodore Hornblower his orders. The situation was critical: mutiny was an infection that could spread through the fleet like the plague and, furthermore, the crew were threatening to go over to the French. 1813: Sir Horatio Hornblower has received strict and highly confidential orders from the highest rank. He must embark upon a grave and perilous mission to rescue a man he knows to be a tyrant from the mutiny of his crew in the Bay of Seine. At the same time, there are reports that the tide of war may be turning, as Wellington has swept over the Pyrenees and the Russians have reached the Rhine. Soon Hornblower is propelled toward the heart of the French Empire, toward a fateful reunion with old friends, and the harrowing but glorious conclusion of his own battle with Napoleon.
