Description
British privateer Philip Carruthers embarks on a perilous journey to put his past behind him. On a secret mission for Queen Victoria, he finally finds the treasure he has been seeking for two long years.
However, his quest also leads him to a diplomat's daughter, Miss Beryl Angsley, who is kidnapped by Chinese pirates in the South China Sea. Honor-bound to rescue her, Captain Carruthers risks his ship and crew - including his loyal feline companion - to save her life.
In the midst of a treacherous world where survival hangs in the balance, Philip must choose between fulfilling his sworn duty to the queen and saving Beryl's life. A stand-alone tale of adventure, romance, and intrigue, this story is set against the backdrop of a bygone era.
