Tomas stared at his cousin. Diego's face was gaunt and almost as white as the flapping sails. His uniform, creased and stained with vomit, hung on him. He looked like a scarecrow. Tomas, gasped Diego. How? He forced a smile. Tomas saw his teeth were yellow. He also saw the lice crawling through his hair. I'm a Sand Clocker! shouted Tomas, trying to make himself heard above the crashing waves. Violent storms, seasickness, raging battles, cannon-fire, scurvy and lice- life on board the Trinidad Valencera is terrifying and dangerous. Will the two cousins reach the English coast alive? Who will win the final great sea battle? And can the Valencera ever hope to make it home again? When Diego says those words: I'm going to join the Armada both his and Tomas's lives are changed- for ever. A historical adventure from the author of, Davey's Siege, Patrick's Gift and Challenge of the Red Unicorn.
