Lord Hornblower

It is the fall of 1813. The redoubtable Sir Horatio Horn- blower faces challenges more perilous than ever before. He must embark on a most delicate and dangerous assignment: the recapture of the eighteen-gun brig Flame from her mutinous crew, who have threatened to defect to the French. Fighting the violent pitch of gale-force winds, Hornblower crosses the English Channel, bound for what will become his final and most devastating confrontation with Napoleon. In an audacious and cunning maneuver, risking his honor as well as his life, Hornblower not only reclaims the mutinous Flame but also captures a blockade-running Indiaman, laden with precious cargo. Then in a brilliant coup d'etat, Sir Horatio also seizes and secures the port of Le Havre!
