In this second book of the "Edmund Talbot" trilogy the young aristocrat, on his way to Australia to become a governer's ADC, continues his journey. He describes the eventful voyage aboard an eighteenth-century fighting ship, converted to carry passengers and cargo from England to Australia. The forced proximity of passengers and crew intensifies all emotions to breaking point and Edmund himself falls in love - a totally new and wholly disorienting experience.
