Set against the backdrop of the early December tensions between Britain and China, the narrative follows H.M.S. Perseus as it patrols the Canton River. With war declared due to China's treaty violations, British naval forces are actively engaged in skirmishes, pursuing enemy junks that attempt to evade confrontation. The story captures the intensity of naval warfare and the strategic maneuvers employed by the British fleet during this critical historical moment.
