Description
It's 1808 and Sweden is at war with Russia. The war is not going well.
On land, the Swedish army is retreating continuously and all that
stands between the Russians and the Swedish mainland are the gunboats
of the inshore fleet. The sea war amongst the islands of the Finnish
and Swedish archipelagos is a special kind of war, fought in open boats
by badly equipped men without proper training. Fighting the weather as
much as the Russians, Lieutenant Johan Kuhlin commands a small squadron
of three gunboats on special duty. During the short and wet summer, he
learns that an independent command isn't all glory and that spies can
be more dangerous than Russian guns.
