{"product_id":"2940177617091","title":"A Fine Retribution","description":"Captain Alan Lewrie and his small squadron defeat four French frigates off northern Spain, winning honor, glory, and renown. So, why is such a successful captain suddenly without a ship, or another active commission? Why do rumors swirl that jealous foes' powerful patrons are blighting his career?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMonths on end ashore, even in entertaining London setting up a household for himself and his retinue, getting his portrait painted, put him in serious sulks. Well, the artist is the sister of one of his midshipmen, a delightful and talented young lady of a modern outlook, but not modern enough to become Lewrie's lover. Dare he risk a second marriage? Then, just when things are the rosiest, at last, Admiralty calls upon him to develop and command a plan to raid French-held coasts, not with sailors and Marines from his own ship, but with a battalion of Army troops carried in a squadron of transports. It's intriguing, novel, and a way back to sea, but . . . can he part from the desirable Jessica Chenery? And if Lewrie does, will his foes allow him to succeed? Be certain that Alan Lewrie will prevail, scruples be damned!","brand":"Tantor Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46474191634673,"sku":"2940177617091","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/5433\/7265\/files\/2940177617091_p0.jpg?v=1765397477","url":"https:\/\/shop.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940177617091","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
