Summary
Reunited with his crew aboard the frigate HMS Themis, Captain Charles Hayden is ordered by the Admiralty to the West Indies to carry war to the French among their own islands.
Before he makes port in Barbados, the Themis intercepts a single boat adrift in the middle of the ocean - its sole occupants, two young Spanish noblemen. But not is all as it seems with Hayden’s unexpected guests.

Good book, good series
I would have preferred the same narrator as the previous books, however Daniel Philpott did a good job.

A little disappointed after good first books
I was left a little disappointed with the latest book in the series. The narration was definitely found lacking when compared to the previous books and the characters therefore came over as a bit one dimensional. whether this was completely down to the narration, or there was also a drop in overall quality is difficult to say. For me Haydon seemed to have changed from a believable sea hero to an upper class youngster in a series of contrived situations. Hopefully we will see a return to the quality of books 1&2. for the next release, or i think ill be giving this series a miss.

Surprisingly moving and complete
I came late to this series having read all the usual suspects in this genre.I had low expectations but was surprised by the authority of the author in all aspects of the history and development of the story.Everything you could ask for in terms of
" Being there".You can smell the cordite and ozone. It was in the end moving and complete.

4th in the series is a little tired
Good but less enthralling than previous Hayden books. Different narrator to the first three books. not as good.

Good as ever, narrator not as good
Great take as usual.
While the narration is good, unfortunately the narrator is not as good as previous excellent ones.
It is not that he is a bad reader, only he has a high voice, with little range. He therefore is not suited to rugged sailor types. He also lacks the range of regional accents required. All the men sound like similar young boys.

Enjoyed 1st two books very much
Really enjoyed 1st two books in series . The main character seemed so much different and combined with change in narrator book 4 made this book lacking somewhat. If another book came out would still give a try if only to see if main character reverted to previous self

Disappointing
After thoroughly enjoying the excellent first three in the series which were very well narrated I was disappointed to begin this and find that their voices had changed and that the quality of the narration had lessened considerably.
Captain Hayden suddenly sounds about 15 years younger and lacking in any authority.
I shall probably persevere to finish the series but it is such a shame that after getting to know all of the characters the narrator has changed and so have they.

Good Book
Its never the same when a new narrator takes over but he was not badcand you get used to it. It would be nice to know what happens next but sadly there seem to be no more books.
