It is the year 1827 and Captain Peto has just taken command of HMS Prince Rupert, the only three-decker line-of-battle ship in His Majesty's Fleet. He is the proud master of a wooden fortress whose formidable firepower is the equal and more of Bonaparte's grand battery at Waterloo. But his journey to the Aegian will not be all smooth sailing.
