Review

A ghost ship has plagued the sea for months. This ghost ship has been a pain in the side for pirates. It has also been a saving grace for the enslaved. So, it must be found and the captain contained. But, the captain is not who anyone expects.

Louise is living in the wrong time period. She wants to own her own ship, but in 1600 Holland…you can imagine the hardship this is. But, due to her uncle, Louise does succeed in her dream. Not only that, she succeeds in making the seas a safer place. Something that the powers that be could not do. This lands her in prison and a noose around her neck. But, don’t count her down yet…you need to read this to find out.

I have been a fan of this author since her very first book. And I have read them all. This story, like all her books, is very well researched. There is so much that I learned and enjoyed in this tale.

Need a unique historical fiction…THIS IS IT! Grab your copy today!
