Inhalt: |
Maritime fiction in the spirit of C.S. Forester and Patrick O?Brian, Firehead?s Malice is a rousing sea adventure that sweeps across the West Indies during the Seven Years? War, where navies clash and pirates roam. A tale of passionate greed and ruthless betrayal in the age of sailing warships - the most powerful and awe-inspiring weapons of their time.
? Was Lady Crimhedden, noblewoman, respected Royal Navy widow, involved with pirates?
? And was her lover really a spy for the French?
? What happened to the brig with dispatches to warn the fleet?
? Could they have fallen into pirates? hands?
Even so, the most notorious pirates regress to deserved insignificance - overshadowed by the greater greed of nations in deadly contest to wrest West Indies? resources to their own gains in what was, in fact, the very first world war. |
