Publisher's Synopsis

One of the first modern spy novels, this gripping tale also offers a vivid account of coastal sailing and navigation in the Baltic Sea during the era leading up to WWI. Written in 1903 by a Boer War veteran, it incorporates a wealth of technical sailing detail in its story of a sunny holiday that gradually darkens into a suspenseful adventure.
