Description
Alexander Kent's Beyond the Reef is a gripping naval adventure that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Set against the backdrop of 1808, when Napoleon's forces are threatening Spain and Portugal, Vice-Admiral Sir Richard Bolitho must navigate treacherous waters to establish a permanent naval force at the Cape of Good Hope. When shipwreck strikes, Bolitho finds himself among survivors who have been driven by duty or desperation. As they struggle to stay alive on the desolate coast of Africa, Bolitho must summon their last reserves of courage and hope in order to survive. This is a story of human resilience and determination in the face of overwhelming adversity. With its no-holds-barred action and gripping narrative, Beyond the Reef is a compelling read from start to finish.
