HTML:<p>Darkness, death and danger on the South Seas</p> <p><strong>South Seas, 1850: Kit Killigrew</strong> and the Tisiphone are heading towards Norfolk Island, a savage penal colony; ostensibly to drop off the prison chief's new governess, but also deliver a reporter bent on interviewing Devin Cusack – an Irish political prisoner.</p> <p>But when an unknown party tries to rescue Cusack, seven of the island's most ruthless prisoners escape, including the fearsome Wyatt. What ensues is a deadly game of cat and mouse among the New Hebrides, where Killigrew unearths a series of illegal trades.</p> <p>Ultimately, it is Killigrew's state of mind which threatens to achieve what a tribe of cannibals, a band of desperate criminals and a vicious trader – hell bent on profit at any cost – cannot, as he places himself in the line of danger once too often...</p> <p><strong>The third magnificent Killigrew adventure, this is a thrilling maritime ride perfect for fans of C.S. Forester, Patrick O'Brian and Julian Stockwin.</strong></p>Praise for the Killigrew Novels <p>'<strong>A hero to rival any Horatio Hornblower</strong>. Swashbuckling?
