From award-winning author, James Nelson comes a thrilling and exciting maritime adventure that will have you on the edge of your seat.
One simple mission can have everlasting consequences ...
1776. A fleet of British transport ships are looming off Staten Island, while the remnants of General George Washington's army huddle behind hastily constructed fortifications on Brooklyn Heights. There, Washington is preparing for the final destruction of the Continental army.
Captain Isaac Biddlecomb receives a monumental order – to transport to France the most dangerous secret weapon in the country's arsenal: scientist and philosopher Benjamin Franklin.
Biddlecomb's seemingly simple mission to deliver Franklin to the court of Louis XVI is just the first volley in a grand scheme. While he is boldly raiding the English coast and Franklin is discussing strategy at Versailles, they both conspire to blow French neutrality out of the water – and turn the colonial uprising into a full-scale war ...
'Historically accurate and imaginatively depicted, Captain Biddlecomb proves a worthy shipmate.'
Historical Novel Society
'Nelson handles deftly the O'Brian dominated maritime genre with ... tense action and battle sequences.'
Publishers Weekly
'Nelson proves again to be an able novelist who handles deftly the conventions of the O'Brien-dominated maritime genre and writes characters who burst out of their stereotypes.' (on The Continental Risque)
