by Sean Patrick O'Mordha (Author)
The year 1592 marks 100 years since Columbus made passage to a new world. Changes occur, but not for many. At the age of six, François is an orphan struggling to survive alone on the streets of St. Nazaire, France with a murderous army sergeant trying to kill him until he is rescued by an old pirate and a mysterious man who could only have been an angel. For the next eight years, he apprentices aboard pirate ships until thrown up on El Hierro, a tiny island in the Canary archipelago. There begins his journey leading two lives - one as a successful plantation owner, the other as a notorious pirate. As long as the secret is kept, it is a good life until making a fatal mistake that will deny him eternal rest for the next 400 years. Sean O'Mordha continues the legacy of a pirate, blending historical fact and fiction into a captivating story of adventure and love.
