Pirates of Nassau - Turmoil & Betrayal


Book Description

“There are still thirty-thousand Doubloons buried that’ll never see the light of day!” The Sopranos meets Pirates of the Caribbean Turmoil and Betrayal are the first two episodes in the five-part Pirates of Nassau serial. This bloody tale of friendship and foes is perfect for readers who enjoy a humorous, drama-filled, fast, fun read. Everyone knows what goes on at sea but what about on shore. On an island where pirates rule and kidnapping and murder are a way of life, a turf war is brewing. The once idyllic island of Nassau is awash with buccaneers, bandits and mercenaries all with their own agendas. The infamous Captain Kidd hangs on the gallows, the secrets of his buried treasure taken to the grave with him or at least that’s what most think. Isaac Carver isn't like most. He has something that no one else in Nassau does, and he's determined to use it to find that treasure. To do this, he’ll need to enlist help from some of Nassau’s notorious residents, avoid capture and try to stay sober… at least for the most part. But with a turf war brewing, the city is in turmoil and trust is in short supply. Will Isaac become the pirate captain he’s always dreamed of and find Kidd’s prized treasure or will he perish on the island where few survive. Set in a world where they make their own rules, the first two installments of this page turning serial will leave readers wanting more. The adventure is just beginning. Only the strong survive.
