In the 1840s the Royal Navy is fighting a fierce battle to suppress the transatlantic slave trade. Midshipman Valentine Murray faces action in the Caribbean and the perilous seas off West Africa. Murray makes some unlikely allies and there is a hint of romance in the air, but slave dealers, savage tribes and disease decimate the British crew. Will he prevail to set foot in his native England again?
