Description

Ranked as a lieutenant despite his undistinguished naval career, Richard Delancey is given a special secret mission due to his command of French. However, the mission proves unsuccessful. Seeking new opportunities, Delancey becomes involved in customs collection and thwarts the activities of smugglers on the Isle of Wight. As he navigates these new challenges, Delancey must use his skills to outwit those who would seek to evade the law. With its blend of intrigue and adventure, this novel offers a gripping tale of espionage and smuggling. Set against the backdrop of 18th-century England, this story explores the complexities of life as a naval officer turned customs collector.
