Description
It's 1810 and Britain has new, though uncomfortable allies and a continent to recover. With the old order gone and the threat from Napoleon firmly fixed on foreign shores, Britain is in an only slightly more comfortable place. Political manoeuvrings at the highest possible level have deadly consequences for the men on the ground, while old rivalries threaten to hurt the pockets of the rich and the bellies of the poor.
Never entirely the hero, Jack Bones is the enemy nobody wants and the friend nobody admits to. Four and a half years on, from the darkest days, that took his family, and his past comes back to haunt him. Once more drawn into the stew pot of aristocratic underhanded dealings, Jack finds he must think on his feet, not only to survive, but to protect the men in his care. As a fair wind carries him and his crew to the hands of the enemy, the roguish lieutenant finds he is once more expendable, for the greater good.
This book begins the second series of 'Rib Bone Jack' adventures, following a roguish poacher as he utilises his wits and his hunter's instinct to survive in a dark world of self-serving aristocrats and over enthusiastic patriots. A world in which mistakes cost dearly, and friends change with the wind.
