Passage to Mutiny

by Alexander Kent Book 9 in the Richard Bolitho series.

First published 1976

4.5(1,913)

In 1789, the frigate Tempest reaches Sydney after years of policing Britain’s new southern trade routes. Captain Richard Bolitho expects to return home, but instead receives orders to investigate a threatened trading concession among the islands of the South Pacific.

The recent mutiny aboard HMS Bounty casts a shadow over the voyage, exposing the temptations and resentments that can fracture an isolated crew. Pirates, unfamiliar waters and violence ashore place Tempest under growing strain, while news of revolution in France reminds Bolitho that the fragile peace in Europe may soon end.
