Fifteen-year old Morganna runs away from an abusive home to search for her blood father, a man she's never met. Fearful she'll be recognized by locals, she disguises herself as a boy. Hitching a ride from a fisherman, Morganna crosses the Bristol Channel to Goldcliff, Wales, where she hopes to find her father. She is astounded when the fisherman divulges her father is a famous Welsh privateer, the fearsome Captain Henry Blackwell. Morganna, now August Raven, finds the captain, quite by accident, and convinces him to let her sail the high seas back to Jamaica and fight as one of his pirates in the Caribbean. She withholds from revealing her true identity...or the fact she's a girl.
