In 1803 Napoleon smashes the Peace of Amiens, and Captain Jack Aubrey, R. N., taking refuge in France from his creditors, is interned. He escapes from France, from debtors' prison, from a possible mutiny, and pursues his quarry straight into the mouth of a French-held harbor. Stephen Maturin's struggles, with himself as much as with a proud and intelligent woman, are woven into Aubrey's, straining their friendship at times to the breaking point.O'Brian, Patrick is the author of 'Post Captain (Vol. Book 2) (Aubrey/Maturin Novels)', published 1994 under ISBN 9780393037029 and ISBN 0393037029.
