Synopsis :

The first in a trilogy of novels featuring Nathan Peake, British naval officer and spy during the war with Revolutionary France.

Peake is entrusted with a vital mission to wreck the French economy by smuggling millions of French banknotes across the Channel and into the heart of Paris. But opposition to the Terror mounts and Peake is soon forced to leave Paris and find the storm-tossed British squadrons in the Atlantic...
