Absolute Honour

Jack is back in 18th-century England! Perfect for fans of Andrew Taylor, Bernard Cornwell, Patrick O'Brian and Laura Shepherd-Robinson.

Mine honour is my life...

London, 1759

On his return voyage to England, Jack Absolute helps in the defeat of a privateer.

He gains a friend in a charismatic Irishman, Red Hugh McClune, along with a large share of the prize money and a nasty dose of cholera.

Jack convalesces in Bath, where he falls in love with McClune's beautiful cousin, Laetitia.

But this romance soon turns to tragedy.

The King is coming to Bath and Red Hugh plans to assassinate him - for the exiled King James III and all Jacobites.

Jack foils the plot and escapes with his life, but loses something more important to him: his honour.

Through betrayal, mutiny, cavalry charges and duels, Jack seeks to restore that honour - but at what cost...?

ABSOLUTE HONOUR is a page-turning historical thriller set in the 18th century. It is the second book in the Jack Absolute Military Adventures series.

'An absolute delight!' - Diana Gabaldon

'Jack escapes death more often than James Bond ... an exciting romp' - Sunday Telegraph

'raucous page-turner, rich in historical detail, full of action, freewheeling and yet utterly believable. Like Patrick O'Brian's Jack Aubrey, Jack Absolute is a character strong enough to fascinate through many, many sequels' - Historical Novel Society

'a marvellous coming-of-age story, featuring a character who is both fascinating in his own right but is also a witness to, and occasionally an actor in, some of the events that shaped what became our future.' - Reading Reality Blog
