Finn never knew his mother, or his father, legendary pirate captain Jean LeCraw. Son of slaves, Edo longs for freedom. Born to lead an empire built on slavery, Antonio is trapped in a life of privilege he does not want. Arranged to be married by her parents, Mattie’s life is over. Desperate for freedom, the fifteen-year-olds escape to sea, but pirates capture their ship and lock them in the dungeon of El Morro Castle. Captain Henry Jennings rescues the teens and sails them into the Golden Age of Piracy, where they must learn to work together if they are to survive against the duplicity of politicians, the cannons of three navies, bounty hunters, uncharted reefs, hurricanes, and fellow pirates. PIRATE STORM is inspired by the true story of the teenage pirates of Bathsheba .
