To Review
Description:
The year is 1722; a time in which the most notorious pirates to roam the seas have been hunted down, men and women such as Bartholemew Roberts, Charles Vane, Calico Jack Rackam, Anne Bonny, Mary Read, and of course, Edward Teach, better known as Blackbeard. There are still many pirates upon the seas however, lesser known but just as dangerous,
pirate captains with names like Edward Low, Thomas Anstis, and John Gow still prowl the trade routes for booty. During this time, sixteen year old Natalie Brennan Satterfield sails for the colonies of America. Her world is destroyed when the ship she sails upon is attacked by a band of ruthless pirates on the Caribbean Sea. Managing a desperate escape, she finds herself marooned on an uncharted speck of an island. She is not alone however, and the pampered and privileged life of the London merchant's daughter is soon filled with adventure and peril as she pushes ever forward to the American coast, finding strength within her heart which she never imagined did exist.
