Synopsis

Captain Alan Lewrie returns for his tenth roaring adventure on the high seas. This time, it's off to a failing British intervention on the ultra-rich French colony of Saint Domingue, wracked by an utterly cruel and bloodthirsty slave rebellion led by Toussaint L'Ouverture, the future father of Haitian independence. Beset and distracted though he might be, it will take all of Lewrie's pluck, daring, skill, and his usual tongue-in-cheek deviousness, to navigate all the perils in a sea of grey.

About The Author

Dewey Lambdin is the author of nine previous Alan Lewrie novels and an omnibus volume, For King and Country.

He makes his home in Nashville, Tennessee, but would much prefer Margaritaville or Murrell's Inlet.
