'Salute a new master of the sea' Daily Express
Peter Smalley was born in Melbourne, Australia, and hails from a seafaring family. After an early career in advertising he became a screenwriter, broadcaster, and novelist. He lives in London with his wife, Clytie.
Once aboard a frigate, Peter Smalley can be guaranteed to hold his
reader a willing captive. This time the adventures of William
Rennie and James Hayter take Hayter ashore for much of the time,
testing him to almost breaking point, and Smalley's ability to
involve proves just as strong there as it is at sea. He is a most
powerful story-teller.

What these books are about are old-fashioned concepts such as duty,
honour and standing by your friends and knowing what bravery is.
They are not demanding, but they are typically exciting, compulsive
action adventures. Take one on holiday this year.
