Doc Hanson dazzled readers and critics with his first novel, Bloody Bill Walker and the Letter of Marque. Now Bloody Bill Walker is back, in an adventure that is perhaps the quintessential pirate story - A classic swashbuckling tale of Voodoo, slave girls, Pirate Queens, buried treasure, and lost civilizations. The year is 1666. His Majesty's Secret Service, under Charles II, has discovered a devious plot that will undermine British interest in the New World, but their agent in the Caribbean, Captain William Walker is missing. A Maroon voodoo priestess in the Blue Mountains of Jamaica says Walker is on an island, alive and in the care of Sophie, a mysterious Obeah girl. With the help of a Moko Jumbi man, Walker and Sophie escape the island on board the Blanche Sorcier, a French frigate du ordre. A storm drives the ship to the Miskito Coast and a Mayan Chief where they discover Aztec human sacrifices, a lost civilization, and find a hoard of ancient treasure. However, their real goal is the pursuit of a renegade, French envoy, Le Renard Noir and a Spanish Admiral who intends to change the course of history. The couple finds The Black Fox on Martinique during Carnival where they also encounter the flamboyant woman privateer, Back from the Dead Red. After capturing Le Renard Noir, Henry Morgan takes the Spanish stronghold of Portobello as a diversion. While Morgan holds the port, Walker heads to Monkey Bay and up the San Juan River aboard Abraham Blauvelt's ship, the Scarlet Queen, to La Mar Dulce where he enlists the aid of an Indian Chief called The General to carry out a clandestine plan that will stop the Spanish Admiral. Then it's back to Jamaica and to Henry Morgan's hideout at Llanrumney and into the arms of Lilly. Filled with breathtaking suspense and extraordinary imagination, Pyrate Odyssey is yet further proof that when it comes to historical fiction and pirate lore nobody beats Doc Hanson.
