Description
In 1742, a young woman's life is forever changed when her father is murdered by men he thought were friends. Goody Brown, adopted as a baby and raised in the smuggling town of Winchelsea, must navigate a world where lawlessness prevails to find justice for her family. As she enters the cut-throat world of her father's killers, Goody discovers a taste for danger that makes her blood run fast. With her brother Francis by her side, she faces high seas and desperate villains in a quest for truth and survival. But as she develops a sense of freedom and independence, Goody must confront what life can be like without constraints or expectations. A gripping tale of revenge, loyalty, and self-discovery, Winchelsea is a story of one woman's journey to forge her own path in a world where the rules are made to be broken.
