Hazzard's Convoy

More about the book

"A deadly French ship stalks the waves. Hazzard must sink her at all costs... Late 1799. Napoleon Bonaparte seizes power in a coup in Paris as an Ottoman army of 80,000 descends upon Egypt. Abandoned in the desert, French general Kleber wants to get his beleaguered soldiers home, their only hope a rescue fleet led by the mighty 74-gun Genereux. For William John Hazzard and the marines of 9 Company, the order is clear: find her and sink her. Beset by spies from Constantinople to Sicily, Hazzard races after the Genereux and the desperate French convoy with De la Vega and the Volpone - and breaks the heart of Lady Hamilton, as he brings Nelson out to give battle once again."--Provided by publisher.
