Summary
On the eve of Waterloo, a sense of finality and cautious hope pervade a nation wearied by decades of war. But peace will present its own challenges to Adam Bolitho, captain of His Majesty's Ship Unrivalled, as many of his contemporaries face the prospect of discharge. The life of a frigate captain is always lonely, even more so for Adam, mourning the death of his uncle. He is, more than ever, alone, within the Royal Navy, where the only constants are the sea and those enemies who conspire to destroy him.
Please note: This is a vintage recording. The audio quality may not be up to modern day standards.

Awful quality
The recording is awful, especially at the start but if you stick it out it gets a bit better.

Audible please check download quality
Great book but sound quality of first few chapters appalling. Audible this must have slipped through your quality control somehow.

Awful recording quality
It was a struggle to listen to. The sound quality was not good and the story was more of a dragged out description of the state of play after the demise of our hero

Poor Sound Track?
Yes, but it’s an old recording that has not weathered the passage of time well.
Another great story, we will all miss Sir Richard but Adam has stepped up to carry on our adventures together!
