Gerard Oakley RN: The Taking Of HMS Poseidon

Captain Gerard Oakley is haunted by images of the men who were left to die aboard the HMS Poseidon, a ship that he led unwillingly into the hands of the Turkish pirates. With the Poseidon lost, Gerard is relieved of his duties and stripped of his command. Despite the unfortunate circumstances that had befallen him, the young captain is highly regarded by his superiors, and as such, no charges are brought against him. His only solace is a vow to redeem himself of the turmoil he has brought to himself, and his Majesty's Navy, in the hope that he will be rewarded once again to command his own ship. R J Blowers delivers a compelling tale, 'Gerard Oakley RN: The taking of HMS Poseidon'. With an engrossing plot, the author's literary prose will intrigue the mind until the final page.
