A brand new Age of Sail adventure begins! For fans of Dewey Lambdin, Patrick O'Brian, Nicholas Monsarrat, C. S. Forester and Max Hennessy.

All that glitters is not gold...

New York, 1707

While the world is at war and the bold seek their fortunes, Gideon Locke's reputation is in tatters, leaving him destitute and stranded in New York City.

Rather than waste years aboard a merchant ship, he shucks oysters for a living, trying in vain to convince one of the sailors whose prizes fill the wharves to take him on.

His fortune changes when Captain Tanner, a charismatic privateer, recruits him aboard his ship, the Priscilla.

Their mission appears straightforward: deliver a pair of wealthy passengers, Charles Hamilton and his wife Lady Sara, to Jamaica.

But Gideon soon realises Captain Tanner is hiding a dark secret.

As a murky link to the notorious French corsair, Captain Baudelaire, emerges, Gideon's fortune looks to be on a downward spiral.

And when he is set up as a traitor, it seems his very life could be at stake.

Can Gideon escape his disastrous sea adventure? Can he rebuild his reputation?

Or will his latest foray into privateering be his last...?

THE PRIVATEER is the first book in the Gideon Locke Naval Adventures series: action-packed, authentic Age of Sail historical adventures set in the 18th century.
