El reverso de la medalla es una novela histórica de Patrick O'Brian, ambientada en la Armada inglesa. En esta entrega, el capitán Jack Aubrey y su compañero Stephen Maturin regresan a Inglaterra tras una misión en América del Sur. Aubrey decide invertir sus ahorros en Londres, lo que lo involucra en un turbio caso de fraude. Maturin, con su experiencia como espía, será fundamental para resolver la situación. La novela explora temas como la situación económica de los capitanes en tiempos de Nelson y cómo sus carreras podían verse afectadas por el azar.
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.
