Treason on the Barbary Coast!
C.T. Liotta It is 1805. England battles Napoleon, and tall ships sail the seas. The Royal Navy has convicted Lieutenant Gabe Woodson of “unnatural sins” with a fellow officer and stripped him of rank when a distress message from his imprisoned brother summons him to Tunisia. Joined by an expert mathematician with a wooden leg, a surgeon whose hands tremor, and a woman pirate named Genevieve Hale, he must evade his sentence, steal a ship from His Majesty's Government, and make his way to the Barbary Coast. It won’t be easy: his adversaries have favourable winds, sharpened sabres, and loaded cannons. Can Woodson survive to rescue his brother? Or, will he be left in irons?
