Overview: Captain Pat O’Connor, Lieutenant Duncan Macleod and Doctor Simon Ferguson return from half-pay to command the frigate HMS SURPRISE, returned to service after long years ‘in ordinary’ at Plymouth Dock to serve the cause of Greek independence. After escorting Lord Byron to Cephalonia, SURPRISE aids the fledgling Greek navy against the crushing superiority of the Ottoman fleet. Set amidst the destruction, sack and massacres of the islands of Kasos and Psara, this fictional tale is based upon the historical events of 1823 and 1824. Struggling to retain their sanity against all the odds, O’Connor, Macleod and Ferguson, reunited with their former shipmates, a valiant band of brothers, bring HMS SURPRISE to action in the thrilling and climactic battle to defend the island of Samos from Turk invasion. Within the frenzy that is every fight for freedom, this is a tale of the greatest of human traits: a story of courage, compassion and humanity.
