Weigh anchor with newly-commissioned Commander Kydd in a convict ship to Australia,uncharted waters and unknown dangers.
Thrilled at his first command,a little brig sloop called Teazer,Thomas Kydd must race to bring his ship to battle readiness.The Napoleonic wars continue and he is desperately needed to defend Malta against Barbary corsairs, ferocious privateers and the French who are frantically trying to rescue the remains of their army in the Levant.

A rare chance gives him the opportunity to go to sea once again.He sets sail as captain of a convict transport for the penal colony in New South Wales - and challenges that will test both his seamanship and humanity to the limit.
