Synopsis

Alex Hawke is sailing into trouble when an around-the-world journey becomes a fight against terror in the latest exciting adventure from New York Times bestselling novelist Ted Bell.

After saving the kidnapped heir to the British throne, gentleman spy and MI6 legend Alex Hawke is due for some downtime. He’s got a new custom built sailing yacht and a goal: to get closer to his son Alexi during an epic cruise across the seven seas.
 
But fate and the chief of MI6, Lord David Trulove, have other plans.

There’s an unholy alliance of nations who are plotting to attack Western democracies. The wily intelligence leader plans to use Hawke to drive a knife into the heart of this conspiracy. From an island base off Cuba to a secret jungle lair deep in the Amazon, on the land and the seas, the master spy and his crew of incorrigibles are in for the fight of their lives—the fight for freedom.

I’ve read and enjoyed all the other Alex Hawke novels but this one was very poorly written and stretched credibility beyond what a fictional novel should. Example: Castro’s army is on an island with their escape blocked off but are suddenly driving through the outskirts of Havana! How? They were on......more

Goodreads review by Jeremy on September 10, 2021

I've read and enjoyed all of Ted Bell's Alexander Hawke series but thought the last few were not up to level of earlier books in the series. Sea Hawke, while not the best book in the series, is a big improvement over the last few books. Bell was able to tap into the magic that made the Hawke series......more

Goodreads review by Glen on December 24, 2021

I won this book in a goodreads drawing. After the events of the last book, Hawke decides to take a year's sea voyage with his son in his custom yacht...which just happens to be better armed than most destroyers. Lots of derring-do!......more
