Publisher Description:

1745. War spreads across the Atlantic as New England forces and the Royal Navy descend on the mighty French fortress of Louisbourg.

Now the harbour burns, the guns of the fortress thunder against their own captured batteries, and the corvette Écho is the last French ship still free.

Gallant’s orders are simple: break through the British blockade, cross the Atlantic, and reach France with a desperate plea for reinforcements. But the sea offers no mercy.

From savage boarding actions and desperate escapes to naval bombardments and covert attacks behind enemy lines, The Black Cockade launches the epic Paul Gallant saga with a sweeping tale of courage, endurance, and war at sea.
