The Fox and the Fury (Patrick Dalton, Bk 2)
The Fox and the Fury - Patrick Dalton, Bk 2 Author:Dan Parkinson The bloody rebellion in Britain's American colonies had become a full-scale war, and hiding places for a fugitive were scarce. Accused of treason against the crown and now a renegade on the run, ex-British naval officer Patrick Dalton's future was bleak. So when he was asked to captain the Mystery and sail a cargo so... more »uth from Chesapeake to Charleston, he agreed, not realizing that the cargo was actually four tons of cannon. As Dalton embarked on a desperately perilous voyage, Spanish pirates and the British White Fleet stood between his poorly armed ketch and her destination. To face men-or-war at sea, Dalton needed a fighting ship built to seek out, close, and kill -- a ship like the Fury. But first he had to steal it from the pirates who commanded her. And then, with great sails drumming to the thunder of guns, he must sail against the ships of the Royalist Tories that guarded the Carolina coast in a duel between tall ships and brave men on a blood-flecked sea where only one victor would triumph. . . .« less
