The Devil's Own Luck (The Privateersman Mysteries) (Volume 1)
Royal Navy officer-turned-privateer Harry Ludlow might get rich capturing French trade ships, an activity sanctioned under the wartime rules of 1793. In David Donachie's first book, The Devil's Own Luck: The Privateersmen Mysteries, Harry's brother James is accused of murder, and they find themselves in trouble with corrupt naval officers as the war rages around them.Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information, Inc.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
