Hornblower, newly appointed to rank and responsibility, has more than his share of concern when his ship Atropos springs a sizable leak during ceremonies honoring the passing of Lord Nelson. Hornblower has no need for the humiliation that would visit him should he deliver the venerated admiral's body to the muddy depths of the River Thames! But Hornblower skirts this disaster and sails once more for foreign shores. The Atropos seeks a sunken treasure in Turkish waters...a task made all the more harrowing when Hornblower drives his outgunned sloop directly into battle with a great Spanish frigate.
