About the Book
1709
Gideon Locke’s first voyage as captain of a privateer ship, the Ostra, isn’t going quite how he imagined it.
The man he is indebted to, Captain Irving of the Royal Navy, calls in the favour he’s owed and presses Gideon into service in support of his mission.
He wants the Ostra to hunt down and eliminate Gideon’s old nemesis, Captain Arnaud Baudelaire, before the corsair can rebuild his fleet and make a new stronghold along the Acadian coast.
Baudelaire is now destitute and desperate, a cornered sea wolf who blames his fall from fortune entirely on Gideon, and will stop at nothing to wreak vengeance.
So the plan is simple. Gideon is to draw Baudelaire out, serving as bait.
But Gideon will be up against one of the most experienced and cunning sailors to ever live.
And the stakes have never been higher, for Baudelaire has set his sights on conquering Britain’s American Colonies…
