Killigrew and the North-West Passage

Maritime action in the frozen Arctic

1852: It would be one of the most famous rescue missions ever attempted. For Lieutenant Kit Killigrew, the opportunity to search the Arctic for Sir John Franklins ill-fated expedition is a dream come true. Soon it becomes the stuff of nightmares.

When a captain more interested in personal glory than safety forces them into uncharted waters, Killigrew begins to doubt they will ever get out alive, let alone find Franklin. As desperation sets in, Killigrew knows he must act. But then, to add to their troubles, a creature of almost mythical proportions starts to pick off the crew, one by one

Killigrew and the North-West Passage evokes the true horror of an Arctic winter. Jonathan Lunns most chilling and exciting novel yet is perfect for readers of Bernard Cornwell and Patrick OBrian.
