โฆ Synopsis
In 1809, working undercover for the Admiralty's Secret Department, Captain Nathaniel Drinkwater goes ashore disguised as a Merchant Marine shipmaster of low character. In London's dockland he encounters a known French agent in a brothel and advertises his plans to carry military cargo to Russia. Intended to drive a wedge between Napoleon and his new ally, Czar Alexander, Drinkwater's mission is disrupted by tempestuous weather and a lost escort - a gun-brig commanded by his friend and protege. Reaching the British-occupied island of Helgoland, Drinkwater embarks on a bold course of action that is not endorsed by the Admiralty.
