About this listen

It is 1819, and Captain Adam Bolitho is ordered once again to Freetown in West Africa with secret orders for the senior officer there. The slave trade has been outlawed by many nations, but a hundred thousand slaves are still shipped out annually, the profit for slavers considered worth the risk of interception by the Royal Navy. For Adam, newly married and as fiery as ever, Africa will bring reunions and unexpected allies, and a treachery that wears the mask of friendship, and threatens the very heart of all he loves.

good book. others better

I liked it. It's a shame the one before is missing. The story is sometimes difficult to follow. the narrator is excellent, though his range of voices is more limited than the old narrator. His accents vary a little, with Bolitho sounding a bit Irish in places.
