The Reckoning: Shadows of A Shipwreck
The Reckoning: Shadows of A Shipwreck is a gripping historical thriller that plunges readers into a haunting tale of betrayal, survival, and buried truths. Set in the early 18th century, this novel follows the mysterious reappearance of a long-lost merchant ship and the twisted accounts of its shattered crew. From the treacherous waves of the Atlantic to the volatile courts of Europe, the story unravels through mutiny, secret alliances, murder, and moral reckoning.
As the survivors tell conflicting tales under oath, the truth becomes a weapon-one that threatens reputations, ignites political tensions, and tests the very meaning of justice. Each chapter pulls you deeper into a web of lies, power plays, and impossible choices, asking: when the line between right and wrong blurs, who decides what justice really is?
Value to the Reader:
This novel is more than just an intense page-turner-it's a reflection on human nature when stripped of order. It explores the psychology of survival, the consequences of silence, and the burden of truth. Readers will find themselves questioning loyalty, leadership, and the masks people wear when society breaks down. It's a powerful reminder that history isn't always written by the victors-it's shaped by those who dare to speak.
Age Group:
Recommended for mature teens and adults (Ages 16+) due to intense psychological themes, morally complex decisions, and elements of violence and suspense.
