About this listen

 The worst place for a sailor is to be on the beach. Lord Howe’s words, “You will not be forgotten,” seem nothing more than an empty promise. Now married and with a baby on the way, his finances are steadily dwindling, and he is left no choice but to seek employment with The Honorable East India Company. Hope of a naval career is fading.

When all seems hopeless, Donland has his dream fulfilled; he is given command of Wessex, a frigate. His orders send him to patrol the Coasts of Florida in the year 1790. He is to uncover a plot to undermine English negotiations to purchase Florida from Spain. There are privateers, pirates and munitions runners to contend with.

He has a new ship’s company that does not know his ways and he knows next to nothing about them. His lieutenants are assigned to him and each seems a misfit. Success and survival when facing four privateers depends on trusting them and them him. Action & Adventure Genre Fiction War & Military Inspiring

Computer voice and bad pronunciation ruined the performance made listening more difficult than reading. Bad for Fiction but maybe OK for economics. Poorly developed characters, lack of detail and dscription throughout. Little embellishment on social distinction between classes of seamen or officers interaction in the wardroom. Flat. A Person should listen to this before publishing. Kind of embarrassing. I would want my money back.
