In 1794, Pearce receives an urgent commission after the Glorious First of June while trying to find Toby Burns and protect Emily Barclay. Smugglers remain on his trail, and controversy over the fleet action places Ralph Barclay’s conduct under renewed scrutiny.

Pearce turns his enemies against one another before sailing for the Mediterranean with Emily. A violent encounter at sea and unfinished disputes within the navy make the voyage an escape from one crisis only to enter another.
