FOX UNDER FIRE

The siege of Acre was a savage and desperate action where the British and the Turks fought together against the dreaded Napoleon. It was Napoleon's first setback - the defeat that cost him all chance of spreading his Empire to the East.

George Abercrombie Fox, ambitious and ruthless, hero of THE PRESS GANG and PRIZE MONEY, played a key role at the terrible siege. It was a role that brought him both enormous success and catastrophic failure.

Two duels, hidden treasure, torture, and violent, bloody death, are just some of the ingredients in this suspense-filled and authentic novel. For where Fox sails, excitement and explosive action are always on board!

FOX IS NOT THE NOBLE HERO OF TRADITIONAL FICTION. FOX IS A FIGHTING MAN WHO TRANSCENDS HEROISM - HE DOESN'T CARE HOW HE WINS AS LONG AS HE WINS. HE'S MEAN, CUNNING AND MOST VICIOUS WHEN TRAPPED. THERE'S NO WAY TO OUTFOX FOX!
