Captain Grey's Gambit - A Novel

Praise for J. H. Gelernter and Hold Fast
"This is superb, like a great Cold War thriller, smart, fast, twisty and dangerous. Highly recommended."
- Lee Child
"Brilliant writing, vivid characters, thrilling battle scenes-all the hallmarks of great historical fiction are to be found in this suspenseful tale of an English intelligence agent in the war against Napoleon. Fans of the late Patrick O'Brian will be enthralled."
- Ian W. Toll, New York Times best-selling author of Twilight of the Gods
"J. H. Gelernter has given us a stirring adventure tale with a headlong narrative that never flags."
- Richard Snow, award-winning author of Iron Dawn
"Picture this: James Bond in a red coat, tight white breeches, and a powdered wig topped off with an odd mésalliance between a top hat and a cowboy hat.... [A] rip-roaring novel."
- Susan Lowell, Historical Novel Society
