Overview

All of Patrick O’Brian’s strengths are on parade in this novel of action and intrigue, 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 stockyards and salons of Malta are alive with Napoleon’s agents and the admiralty’s intelligence networks is compromised. Maturin’s cunning is the sole bulwark against sabotage of Aubrey’s daring mission.

Didn't turn the player off when I got where I was going. Just sat there and waited for the other shoe to drop. Plot twists that set the listener up for the next book. I'm waiting for the rest of the series.
