출판사 설명
Ted Bell's New York Times bestselling series returns with Lord Alexander Hawke facing his greatest challenge yet—to find the missing king of Britain.
Following a successful but costly mission to destroy an enemy outpost in Antarctica, Alex Hawke is looking forward to some quiet time at Teakettle Cottage, his home in Bermuda, along with his family. But he's not a man who can avoid trouble.
Former Chief Inspector of Scotland Yard Ambrose Congreve calls him with stunning news. Just days away from a controversial vote threatening to tear the United Kingdom apart at the seams, King Charles has disappeared while vacationing at Balmoral Castle. The prime minister believes she can keep the news quiet for no more than 72 hours. After that, Britain will be plunged into chaos.
With the fate of the kingdom hanging in the balance, it's up to Lord Hawke to find and rescue the missing monarch before it's too late.

Ryan Steck picks up the Hawke torch and runs!
Fans of the late Ted Bell will be thrilled to know that Alex Hawke is back and the series is in good hands! Mr. Bell’s daughter, Birdie chose Bell’s long time editor, fellow author and friend, Ryan Steck to continue this series and what a wise choice that was! The avid sailor in me was hooked in the opening pages where we find Lord Hawke commanding his treasured sailing vessel in an overwhelming naval battle that jumps off the pages. And that’s just the beginning. A daring political conspiracy threatens the British monarchy and Hawke is called into action. We follow Hawke all over Great Britain and Europe as he, once again, must balance his family life with his devotion to country and crown in an epic page-turning adventure. Author Ryan Steck captures the essence of Hawke and all things England from the landscape to the colloquialisms and dialogue while leaving the reader breathlessly entertained. “Well done, old boy!”

An absolute barn burner of a book written by one of the best in the business.

Stunning visuals and superb storytelling mixed with just the right amount of technical know how makes Monarch an amazing first step for Ryan as he assumes the mantle for continuing the Alex Hawke series.
