Sea Lord by Bernard Cornwell
Adult fiction pubilshed by Penguin Books

John Rossendale is a sea-gypsy. For four years he has
wandered the oceans in a 38-foot cutter called Sunflower. He is
. also the 28th Earl of Stowey, but titles don’t stand for much at
sea.

He has sworn never again to set foot on English soil. But then
he receives word that his mother is dying. Now, out of an un-
wonted sense of. duty, he returns to England. —

Stowey has been sold and is now a country house hotel. His

family, now penniless, are hostile. His reputation is in shreds.

At the heart of this is the last great family treasure, a master- ~
piece artwork that could still save the family fortunes. But it
mysteriously disappeared four years ago.

- Someone thinks John knows of its whereabouts; they are will-
ing to go to any lengths to obtain it — even murder.

John wants none of this. He cares nothing for titles or family
fortunes, even less for England. He wants only to flee back to
the sea.

Not even the beautiful Jennifer Pallavicini can convince him to
help recover the painting and clear his name.

But then another member of his family is attacked, someone

_ who can’t fight back, someone who can’t simply sail away. Once

again, reluctantly, he returns to England.

And now he finds himself playing a deadly game of blackmail
and ransom that threatens everything he cares for... A gatne that
could very well cost him his life.

Bernard Cornwell, author of Wildtrack, has written a powerful.
story of atblack sheep, a throwback who still has all the pride
and courage of his forebears.

Sea Lord is masterfully written. The characters leap off the
pages, and you'll practically taste the salt spray!

You cati find it at the local libraty.
