About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Witty, elegant, stylish and the best comedies of manners since Jane Austen.

'Mad Nicholas' to his friends, 'Scourge of Spain' to the enemy, Sir Nicholas Beauvallet has never been known to resist a challenge. When a captured galleon yields the lovely Doña Dominica de Rada y Sylva, he vows to return her and her father to the shores of Spain. But he has no sooner said than done, so he proposes a venture more reckless than any of his exploits on the high seas which have made him Drake's equal and a favourite of the queen. He will take Dominica as his bride even if he must enter the lion's den....

A delightful blend of adventure, wit, and romance—expertly brought to life by the narrator. This is easily one of my top Georgette Heyer titles, filled with endearing characters and a storyline that moves with engaging momentum.

I have read this book several times and this was the first time with Audible. I cannot rate highly enough the narrator was perfect. The character's voices believable and likeable. The story is basically a romance with real adventure. Loved it!!

Beautiful adventure story

I really enjoyed this once they went into land. I'm not keen on swashbuckling romances.

swashbuckling!!

One of the few novels not set in regency times, and with some over archane language. However a fun hero and cracking story finely performed by the narrator.

Great
