En Desolation Island, Jack Aubrey y Stephen Maturin se embarcan en una peligrosa misión hacia Australia con un cargamento de convictos, entre los que se esconde una espía. A bordo del HMS Leopard, la tripulación se enfrenta a enfermedades y a la persecución de un navío de guerra holandés. En medio de tormentas antárticas y alianzas inciertas, Aubrey deberá usar toda su astucia para proteger a su tripulación y cumplir su misión, mientras descubre que se han convertido en la presa y no en el cazador.
Patrick O'Brian, born Richard Patrick Russ, was an English novelist and translator, best known for his Aubrey–Maturin series. These sea novels are set in the Royal Navy during the Napoleonic Wars and centre on the friendship of the English naval captain Jack Aubrey and the Irish–Catalan physician Stephen Maturin. The 20-novel series, the first of which is Master and Commander, is known for its well-researched and highly detailed portrayal of early 19th-century life, as well as its authentic and evocative language. A partially finished 21st novel in the series was published posthumously containing facing pages of handwriting and typescript.
