AN AFFAIR OF HONOR
At the beginning of this fifth novel in Robert N. Macomber’s award-winning Honor Series, it’s December 1873 and Lieutenant Peter Wake is the executive officer of the USS Omaha on dreary patrol in the West Indies. Lonely for his family, he is looking forward to returning home to Pensacola in a few months and rekindling his troubled marriage with Linda.

But fate has other plans for Wake. He runs afoul of the Royal Navy in Antigua and a beautiful French woman enters his life in Martinique. Then he’s suddenly sent off on staff assignment to Europe, where he is soon immersed in the cynical swirl of Old World politics. Wake finds himself running for his life after getting embroiled in a Spanish civil war. Then he gets caught up in diplomatic intrigue among the French, Germans, and British. But his real test comes when he and his old friend Sean Rork are sent on a no-win mission in northern Africa.

Not the least of his troubles is Madame Catherine Faber de Champlain, wife of a French diplomat. Her many charms involve Peter Wake in an affair of honor.

"Bob Macomber continues to create entertaining and informative story lines that illuminate a tumultuous period in U.S. naval history. Macomber, himself an accomplished sailor, lecturer, and historian, keeps the action lively and the plotting brisk. My advice is to sign on early and set sail with Peter Wake for both solid historical context and exciting sea stories!"— Vice Admiral James Stavridis, Naval Institute Proceedings

“Peter Wake continues to emerge as an American hero worthy of his counterparts in naval fiction.”
