Synopsis
A troubled peace with France means that in the harbours and estuaries around England, the royal fleet has been left to rot. Even a frigate captain as famous as Richard Bolitho is forced to swallow his pride and visit the Admiralty daily to plead for a ship. As the clouds of war begin to rise once more over the Channel, he has no choice but to accept an appointment to the Nore. With his small flotilla of three topsail cutters Bolitho sets out to search the coast for seamen who have fled the harsh discipline of His Majesty's Navy for the more tempting rewards of smuggling. But the 'Brotherhood' he comes up against are brutal and dangerous with a secret, sinister trade in human misery. Treason is never far distant and murder commonplace. So when a King's ransom is in peril and Bolitho is ordered to proceed 'with all despatch' to recover it he will need all the loyalty and courage of his three gallant cutters if he is to fulfil his mission.

Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Condition: Bueno. : En la primavera de 1792, Inglaterra disfruta de una paz problemática, con su antiguo enemigo, Francia, aún bajo el Terror. En los puertos y estuarios de todo el país, la flota se ha dejado pudrir, y miles de oficiales y marineros han sido arrojados a la playa. Incluso un capitán de fragata tan famoso como Richard Bolitho se ve obligado a tragarse su orgullo y visitar el Almirantazgo a diario para suplicar por un barco. Cuando las nubes de guerra comienzan a elevarse una vez más sobre el Canal, no tiene más remedio que aceptar un nombramiento en el Nore, y la ingrata tarea de reclutar para la flota. Para Bolitho, que aún sufre las secuelas de una fiebre contraída en el Gran Mar del Sur, e atormentado por la muerte allí de la mujer que había amado, incluso un mando tan humilde es una distracción bienvenida. Con su pequeña flotilla de tres cúteres de vela de tope, se dispone a buscar en la costa a los marineros que han huido de la dura disciplina de la Marina de Su Majestad por las recompensas más tentadoras del contrabando. Pronto descubrirá que sus oponentes no son contrabandistas ordinarios, sino la banda más brutal de contrabandistas que Inglaterra ha conocido, la Hermandad, una banda con hombres de influencia detrás de ellos y un comercio secreto y siniestro de miseria humana. La traición nunca está lejos, el asesinato es común, y cuando el rescate de un rey está en peligro, se le ordena a Bolitho que proceda 'con toda diligencia' para recuperarlo. Atrapado por la traición y la astucia de un viejo adversario, y bajo el fuego enemigo, necesita toda la lealtad y el coraje de sus tres valientes cúteres si quiere cumplir su misión.
