London: Published by Midland Publishing, 2008. Royal 8vo. pp.vii + 421 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. Jack Aubrey arrives home from his exploits in the Mediterranean to find England at peace following the Treaty of Amiens. He and his friend Stephen Maturin, surgeon and secret agent, begin to live the lives of country gentlemen, hunting, entertaining and enjoying more amorous adventures.
Their comfortable existence, however, is cut short when Jack is overnight reduced to a pauper with enough debts to keep him in prison for life. He flees to the continent to seek refuge: instead he finds himself a hunted fugitive.
