The Crimean War rages on. Determined to break the stalemate, the British decide to send a spy into Odessa. And who better for this perilous mission than Captain Phillip Hazard, newly promoted to command of the steam-powered Huntress and fluent in Russian? Hazard bravely takes on the task, but saddled with a surly first lieutenant whose previous captain died mysteriously and with his crew plagued by an unknown illness, Hazard soon finds he must depend on his own resourcefulness to survive.
In a deviation from the previous three volumes of this series, Hazard is involved in a secret mission in the Crimea (don't fret readers, this info is on the back cover and doesn't divulge content). As with the previous three, Stuart has continued to develop an interesting character in Hazard. They're all worth reading, and going through the out of print search process to obtain.
