Description
James Hawke is the terror of Parliament’s fleets, striking like lightning and vanishing before they can catch him. From the opening shots of civil war to its bitter end, he fights a desperate struggle across storm-lashed seas and foreign harbors.
But even the fastest ship can’t outrun defeat. Hunted through the Channel, betrayed ashore, and driven from England to Ireland and France, Hawke must risk his crew, his ship, and his soul to survive.
Captain Hawke delivers relentless, epic historical adventure in the traditions of Hornblower and Sharpe, and a man’s search for meaning as his world sinks in flames.
