The wealth of the world flows through the narrow straits between oceans and seas. Gibraltar, Magellan, Hormuz, Dover, Malacca: each has had its day. Yet there is one that has lingered in the imagination of geographers and fantasists, of admirals and money-hungry merchants since Columbus crossed the Atlantic, and it remains stubbornly elusive. It was the fast route around the top of the American continent that might lead to the riches of the Orient, and for the English it was the shortcut that bypassed the lands where the Spaniards, the Portuguese and the Dutch held sway. It was the Straits of Anián, reputed to offer an ice-free passage from the Pacific Ocean to Hudson Bay on the Atlantic.
George Holbrooke was surprised to be offered a ship during a time of peace, and frankly astonished to find orders to take his frigate Orion to the far ends of the earth in search of the fabled Straits of Anián. Sir Francis Drake was the last Englishman to attempt such a mission; that was two hundred years before and he’d returned having found nothing.
The eighteenth novel in the Carlisle & Holbrooke series is the first in which our hero experiences a world without war. However, conflict is never far away when a British frigate dares to sail in Spain’s own ocean.
