I happened to come across volume 23 of the Richard Bolitho series by Alexander Kent [Douglas Reeman]. "Sword of Honor" is a summing up and a new beginning. Bolitho dies during an engagement related to Napoleon's excape from Elba and his Nephew and heir, Adam is given the family sword. As there are several volumes after this one, I presume they about Captain Adam Bolitho's adventures at sea from this point. I look forward to finding and reading them.
