Helpful Score: 1

Ranked a lieutenant despite his undistinguished naval career, Richard Delancey lands a special secret mission, thanks to his command of French. The mission goes awry. But Delancey becomes involved in customs collection on the Isle of Wight and thwarting the high-stakes activities of smugglers. Good series of naval novels. Not quite as good as the Hornblower series but an informative and adventurous read.
