The third book in the Matthew Hawkwood series.
Matthew Hawkwood, ex-soldier turned Bow Street Runner, goes undercover to hunt down smugglers and traitors at the height of the Napoleonic Wars in this thrilling follow-up to Ratcatcher. For a French prisoner of war, there is only one fate worse than the gallows: the hulks. Former man-o'-wars, now converted to prison ships, their fearsome reputation guarantees a sentence served in the most dreadful conditions. Few survive. Escape, it's said, is impossible. Yet reports persist of a sinister smuggling operation within this brutal world -- and the Royal Navy is worried enough to send two of its officers to investigate. But when they disappear without trace, the Navy turns in desperation to Bow Street for help. It's time to send in a man as dangerous as the prey. It's time to send in Hawkwood!

Another cracking good yarn from McGee. I can't decide whether Hawkwood is lucky or unlucky; he's always getting stabbed, shot, beaten or hanged, but he always wins through in the end. He got done by a woman again in this one, you'd think he'd learn. Just as well he's got Jago watching his back. I can't wait until the next thrilling episode - I can't find a website for him to find out what's coming up for Hawkwood.

Thanks again Jenny, I really enjoyed these books & have lent Ratcatcher to a friend to see what he thinks.
