Description
Alexander Kent's Passage to Mutiny is a gripping swashbuckling naval adventure set in 1789. The frigate Tempest, under the command of Captain Richard Bolitho, embarks on a perilous mission to the islands of the Great South Sea, where he must confront pirates, native islanders and treacherous waters. As tensions rise, Bolitho faces deeper fears - news from distant Europe hints at a revolution in France. Meanwhile, the men of the Bounty have mutinied in these same waters, adding an air of uncertainty to his already fraught situation. This is the second installment in Bolitho's adventures, following With All Despatch. With its rich historical context and fast-paced narrative, Passage to Mutiny promises a thrilling ride for fans of naval fiction.
