Synopsis

By fourteen, Hawk remembers little of being captured from a merchant ship six years prior, his father being slain, or his brother, James, being left to die on the burning ship. Instead, he has embraced pirate life and rapidly ascended through the hierarchy. He loves life at sea and desires only to become the last and greatest pirate captain. Then Anna, a beautiful young prostitute in New Orleans, captures his heart. For the first time, Hawk wonders if there is more to life than his pirate existence. As their love continues to build over the next few years, Hawk’s heart is torn between his quest to rule the sea and his desire to escape with Anna. His world is further shaken when he learns that James is alive and helping to lead the rapidly expanding US Navy in avenging his family and eradicating piracy for good. In order to follow his heart, Hawk will have to make an impossible choice and be willing to sacrifice everything—including his own life and the lives of the ones he loves the most.
