   None No current Talk conversations about this book. Ramage is sent to eliminate pirates preying on Caribbean trade. Governor and Admiral want him as a scapegoat  ritaer | Dec 29, 2022 |  They say that absence makes the heart grow fonder but I am inclined to think that it makes the heart wander. This is the synopsis of the latest "Ramage" novel. Away from his love, he finds that the presence of beauty can overwhelm fading beauty. This book also contains a sprinkling of humor as well as the expected violence of naval warfare. (  ) delta61 | Mar 17, 2020 | This book begins with the mutiny at Spithead (http://www.historytoday.com/alex-barker/mutiny-royal-navy-spithead), then proceeds to the Windward Islands. On the way there they encounter a slave ship, an excellent description is given. The story is exciting! (  ) CAFinNY | Apr 26, 2019 | A great tale.

The lieutenant is summoned by the Admiralty and given command of the brig, Triton. But like the rest of the Navy, Triton's crew has mutinied. Sympathizing with some of their complaints, Ramage also knows that if he fails to deliver three sealed dispatches to admirals off Brest and Cadiz, and in the Caribbean, he will become a convenient scapegoat.
