Before long, he is thrust on an undercover mission to St. Petersburg to track down a missing British engineer and to discover the whereabouts of his secret weapon, the Sea Devil. But in the world of espionage, nothing is ever what it seems, and Killigrew must pit his wits against ruthless secret policemen and beautiful but treacherous women before the trail leads him to a final confrontation in his most explosive adventure yet.

From the smoke-filled gentleman's clubs of London to the steamy jungles of the Guinea Coast, Lieutennant Kit Killigrew risks death and disgrace in order to uncover the man behind the Transatlantic slave trade.

Viscount Bullivant has a peculiar notion of a family holiday—spectating at the Crimean War. But when the influential viscount and his family become prisoners of the Russian secret police, Killigrew, who has more important things to worry about, is ordered to rescue them. Soon they are being pursued by the Russian ship Atalanta ; and in her dashing Captain Pechorin, Killigrew may finally have met his match.

Joining the search for Sir John Franklin's ill-fated voyage has long been a dream for Kit Killigrew; however, a captain more interested in personal glory than the safety of his crew turns the voyage into a nightmare.

So when he's instrumental in capturing the infamous Chinese pirate, Zhai Jimng-mu, en route to Hong Kong, and releasing his beautiful hostage, Peri Dadabhoy, no one is surprised. But, for Killigrew, the stakes grow impossibly high—love, professional integrity, and, ultimately, his life.

Forty years after its abolition, the Transatlantic slave trade is more lucrative than ever, and only one man is ruthless enough to beat the slavers at their own game.
