About This Item
London: Published by The Folio Society, 2010. Royal 8vo. pp.vii + 282 with colour and black & white plates. Original blue cloth hardcover with pictorial upper board and spine in slipcase.
Fine as new in the original publishers shrink wrap. Set partly in Malta, partly in the treacherous, pirate-infested waters of the Red Sea. While Captain Aubrey worries about repairs to his ship, Stephen Maturin assumes the center stage for the dockyards and salons of Malta are alive with Napoleon's agents, and the admiralty's intelligence network is compromised. Maturin's cunning is the sole bulwark against sabotage of Aubrey's daring mission.
