Description
It's the great age of fighting sail, when the seven seas are stalking grounds for prey and prize money…
Aboard the crack frigate HMS Artemis, life can be invigorating-and short. Now a fully-fledged Jack Tar, Kydd sails into Portsmouth Harbour and a hero's welcome after a ferocious battle against the French. However his jubilation is cut short when a family matter threatens to take him from the life he has grown to love. But the sea beckons and Kydd manages to ship out again in his beloved Artemis - a voyage that will take him to the East.
