Jacket blurb
As the war with France drags on, the revolution is turning on itself even as its armies move towards Italy.
After playing his part in the siege of Calvi George Markham and his men are assigned to the sloop Sylphide under the young and impetuous Captain Germain. It is not long before Germain's foolhardy hunt for glory throws Markham into the midst of a desperate ship-to-ship action. But fighting hand to hand between the decks of a French ship is what the Marines do best.
Following another of Germain's insane plans, Markham is set ashore in the midst of the French army, while escorting a group of French loyalists on a secret mission. In the days to come Markham might often wish to be back in the thick of the shipboard action.
Dodging French patrols, searching for a secret prize, untangling the deceit and subterfuge all around him, Markham's wits and courage will be tested to the utmost. Once again he must rely on the loyalty of his men and the ever-grudging assistance of Sergeant Rannoch. Then the unexpected arrival of a figure from Markham's past overturns everything.
