Description:

As a junior officer in Admiral Lord Howe's expeditionary fleet sailing against the rebellious American colonies, Patrick Dalton distinguished himself both as a seafarer and a leader -- until he returns to fleet headquarters to find himself a marked man. Accused of treason against the King in wartime, he was banished to die aboard a rotting prison hulk.Dalton's only chance for escape was the captured American schooner Faith, in command of a ragtag crew of British convicts and Colonial adventurers. With drumming sails spread full, Dalton steers a course for the Delaware coast to match wits and guns against the British frigate Courtesan commanded by the captain who has sworn to see Patrick Dalton die. It is the Faith's seven cannon against the 44-gun man-of-war on a swelling sea of iron-grey water that will soon foam red with blood...
