Vengeance at the Falklands: Braving stormy waters in the South Atlantic... (Marcus Baxter Naval Thrillers Book 5) Kindle Edition

4.6 out of 5 stars 29 ratings

It’s another thrilling naval adventure for Marcus Baxter! For fans of Dewey Lambdin, Patrick O’Brian, Chris Durbin, Douglas Reeman and Antoine Vanner.

Beware the enemy in disguise…

Winter, 1914

Lieutenant Marcus Baxter is working in the supply department at HM Dockyard Devonport, when word arrives that the German East Asia Squadron has destroyed a British squadron at the battle of Coronel.

Baxter seizes an opportunity to impress the First Sea Lord, Jackie Fisher, during a snap inspection of the dockyard and secures an appointment to HMS
Astute, a scout cruiser, which is being sent to join the squadron in the South Atlantic.

Surviving a storm in the mid-Atlantic,
Astute has a run-in with a mysterious passenger liner sailing under the Stars and Stripes, and duels with a German light cruiser stalking the rich hunting grounds off the South American coast.

After an intense engagement, which sees the
Astute fleeing along the coast to Montevideo for emergency repairs, Baxter once again encounters the suspicious liner. And this time he is determined not to let it get away.

Baxter risks everything to sneak aboard, and makes a shocking discovery. He needs to reach the safety of the Falklands before any intelligence falls into the wrong hands.

But with the enemy on his tail, the race along the South Atlantic won’t be an easy one…

VENGEANCE AT THE FALKLANDS is the fifth book in the Marcus Baxter naval thriller series: action-packed, authentic historical adventures following former Royal Navy officer Marcus Baxter during the early 1900s and through the First World War.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Tim Chant grew up (mostly), went to school in East Anglia and university in Scotland. He took his History degree and did the only thing he could with it - joined the civil service. When not shackled to his desk he writes science fiction, alternative historical fiction, historical fiction and any other fiction that takes his fancy. When not doing that, he's an inveterate roleplayer and wargamer (and getting back into historical fencing). He lives in Edinburgh with his partner and their two rabbits.

'The Straits of Tsushima', book one of the Marcus Baxter adventures, is his first historical fiction novel. As T Q Chant, he also writes science fiction, steampunk and speculative fiction.
