Volume #9 in the thrilling adventure series featuring Nathan Peake, British naval officer and spy. The British government sends Peake on a dangerous mission to the eastern seaboard of the United States, where a French delegation is headed with the hopes of forging an alliance with the pro-slavery Southern states and establishing powerful naval bases to attack British interests in the western Atlantic. And as the 1806 Battle of the Atlantic reaches the mouth of the Chesapeake, the Eastern Seaboard is about to be hit by one of the worst hurricanes in history.
