The sea was never meant for women... especially women who refuse to obey.
After escaping a brutal pirate raid in colonial South Carolina, Ivory Shepard and her three cousins believe they've finally secured their freedom aboard the pirate ship Demon Sea. Instead, they find themselves trapped in a world far more dangerous than the one they left behind.
Betrayed by the ship's captain and facing a grim fate, Ivory is forced to make an impossible choice-submit to the cruel rules of a man's world or fight for her survival.
She chooses to fight.
One bloody confrontation changes everything, leaving a notorious pirate captain dead and placing Ivory and her cousins in the middle of a battle for control of the ship. Surrounded by men who believe women have no place on the sea, Ivory must rely on her wits, her blade, and the fierce loyalty of her family to survive.
But survival is only the beginning.
As dark secrets emerge and old enemies close in, Ivory discovers that destiny has far grander plans for her than she ever imagined. Before this voyage ends, the world will come to know her by another name...
The Razor.
Filled with high-seas adventure, danger, betrayal, and unforgettable heroines, Demons & Pearls is the thrilling second installment in P.S. Bartlett's beloved pirate saga.
Some legends are born in glory. Others are forged in blood and saltwater.
