Rose Clancy is not a hero. She is a survivor.
In the brutal world of the early eighteenth-century Caribbean, where loyalty is fleeting and danger lurks in every shadow, Rose carves her own path through blood, betrayal, and ambition. Once a plantation slave in Saint Domingue, she escapes a life of bondage only to forge a far more dangerous existence among pirates, cutthroats, and opportunists.
Now the formidable landlady of Nassau's notorious Green Parrot tavern, Rose balances alliances and rivalries while hunting those who have wronged her. When fate draws her back into the deadly game of piracy, she must navigate shifting loyalties, seize opportunity where it arises, and confront enemies both old and new.
With a loyal dog at her side and a ruthless will to survive, Rose proves that in a world ruled by violence and greed, the most dangerous weapon is a mind willing to do whatever it takes.
