'Seaflower' follows the acclaimed 'Kydd' and 'Artemis' in telling of one man's journey from pressed man to Admiral in the Great Age of Sail.
It is three years since Thomas Paine Kydd was spirited away to serve his country aboard the old line-of-battle ship "Duke William". Now, together with members of the ill-fated "Artemis", Tom is a shipwrecked sailor back in the land of his birth. But they find themselves prisoners, waiting to be summoned as court marital witnesses. In a political act to shield an officer's reputation, they are shipped out to the Caribbean - where sugar is king and yellow jack a fearsome peril . . .
