The Admirals' Game by David Donachie
In 1794, Lieutenant John Pearce, returned from the Atlantic, is caught between the constant feuding of 2 senior admirals. One puts him in a position of maximum danger and another asks him to undertake a hazardous commission, one he must undertake in order to protect his friends, the Pelicans. They are his Achilles heel and those in power know it.
