Soldier and Sailor Too

The French Revolutionary War, 1796. As the fighting spreads beyond Europe, Lieutenant Gregory Kennett of the 136th Foot is recruited by Britain’s spymaster, William Wickham, to uncover a French agent lurking within his own regiment. From desperate battles in the Caribbean to secret meetings and growing unrest at home, Kennett discovers signs of a wider conspiracy. Someone is feeding information to the enemy, threatening to cripple the Royal Navy.

As mutiny spreads through the fleet, Kennett must race against time to uncover the mysterious spy while facing some of the toughest battles in the campaign. The principal historical frame is Caribbean Campaigns of the French Revolutionary Wars. The novel places regimental survival within the unstable coalitions and global warfare of the 1790s, when battlefield reverses, espionage and naval unrest threatened Britain simultaneously.
