Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Nancy Kington, a wealthy merchant's daughter living in Bristol, England in the early 1700's, is sometimes lonely but enjoys the privileges her father's business brings. Minerva Sharpe is a penniless slave's daughter living and working on the Kington's Jamaican plantation. These two young women, united through a set of extraordinary circumstances including a brutal murder, an arranged marriage, and set of ruby earrings, find themselves sailing the high seas in search of love, adventure and freedom—as pirates!<p> Celebrated British author Celia Rees (<i>Witch Child</i>, <i>Sorceress</i>) has penned a treasure chest of a tale that will keep teens glued to the pages until the last villain sinks to a deserved watery grave and the last beautiful heroine is reunited with her lost love. Frustrated land-lubbers will want to follow up this four-star read with L.A. Meyer's <i>Bloody Jack: Being an Account of the Curious Adventures of Mary "Jacky" Faber, Ship's Boy</i> or Sara Lorimer`s <i>Booty</i>, a collection of all-true tales of swashbuckling women.<i>--Jennifer Hubert</i></p>
