Hoist the Black Flag: The Adventures of Dan Leake

By J.R. Mulholland

1720. The Golden Age of Piracy. After setting out to look for his pressganged father, fifteen-year old Dan Leake finds himself clinging to a barrel in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. His luck changes when a passing ship saves him from a watery grave, but his joy is short-lived. He soon discovers that his rescuers are not what they seem. Dan is forced to join Calico Jack's blood-thirsty crew, which includes real life pirates Anne Bonny and Mary Read. He faces death on a daily basis before finally finding his dad in Jamaica. However, his problems are far from over as his father is not the hero Dan thought him. Caught up in a world of deceit, piracy, slavery and betrayal, Dan's life is turned upside down as he fights to make sense of a corrupt world, and for his very survival. Hoist the Black Flag is the second book in The Adventures of Dan Leake, trilogy. The Author: J.R. Mulholland was born and raised, mainly in Ireland, Germany, Scotland, England and Wales. He now lives in Chesterfield, UK, where he met and married a Jamaican - and fell in love with rum.
