Europe is in turmoil. Napoleon has turned his attention to Portugal, and Captain Sir Thomas Kydd is ordered to assist in the evacuation of the Portuguese Royal Family. There he encounters Persephone Lockwood, the beautiful and determined admiral's daughter from his past.\u003cbr\u003e But Kydd must sail with the royal entourage and, when he finally returns to England, she is being wooed by another suitor. Going against his nature, he enters the highest echelons of London society determined to win her back.\u003cbr\u003e The Prince of Wales asks Kydd - in his new privileged position - to take temporary command of the Royal Yacht. Sailing to Yarmouth he realises they are being stalked by French privateers. The threat of a prince of the blood being captured sees Kydd call on daring seamanship of the highest order. Will Kydd's actions win him royal gratitude and romantic triumph or will they end in disaster?\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePraise for Julian Stockwin\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e'Paints a vivid picture of life aboard the mighty ship-of-the-line' Daily Express\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hodder \u0026 Stoughton","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45299168673943,"sku":"9781473640931","price":970.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781473640931.webp?v=1769285172","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/persephone-thomas-kydd-18-9781473640931","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
