Book summary


The fifth volume in Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey/Maturin series. In one of the most exciting novels in this series, Captain Jack Aubrey and his ship's physician, Stephen Maturin, sail to Australia with a shipload of dangerous convicts and a beautiful spy, Louisa Wogan. A mysterious disease strikes, taking the lives of many of the crew, and the severely undermanned ship must outrun a Dutch warship in the frigid Antarctic waters.
