Master and Commander Charles Hayden returns in the sequel to the international bestseller Under Enemy Colors.
Winter 1793-the Reign of Terror rips through revolutionary France. In Plymouth, England, Master and Commander Charles Hayden is given orders to return to the ill-fated HMS Themis as the
British fight the French for control of the strategically located island of Corsica.
But within hours out of port, Hayden's uncanny knack for attracting the attention of the French navy sees Themis thrown back into action. When she lands in Corsica and her men join
forces with native insurgents, Hayden finds himself at the vanguard of a brutal clash of empires.
