A serial version for broadcasting of Crosbie Garstin 's trilogy
' The Penhales '
Read by Geoffrey Tandy
Ortho Penhale, a young Cornish squire, was captured by Moorish pirates in the English Channel and sold as a slave in Morocco.
With his gift for ready imitation and the training in horsemanship he had received from the gypsies, he quickly won promotion in the Sultan's army, and this instalment finds him as a captain in the guards. But he meets his match in a woman from the hill country.
