Live the life of a pirate during the golden age of piracy!

It's 1715 and Spain rules the Caribbean. Young Abigail Margaret Mary Pennyworth isn't happy leaving her friends in England for the New World, but she has no say in where her missionary family goes as the Pennyworths set off for America.

Not long before the end of the three-month voyage, their merchant ship is captured by Spanish pirates, and Abby is separated from her family and all she has known. But before she can adjust, the Spanish vessel is captured in turnby the notorious English pirate Benjamin Hornigold, the leader of the Pirate Republic in Nassau.

Hornigold renames the Spanish vessel Mary and decides that, rather than serving Abby to the sharks, he'll have her serve as a member of his crew. And so starts her new life as the Captain's cabin boy.

Abby's adventures begin as they seize Spanish vessels in the Caribbean and sail in consort with many of the famous pirates of the day: Blackbeard (Edward Thache), Black Sam Bellamy and his partner, Paulsgrave Williams, Major Stede Bonnet, and Olivier Levasseau. In Nassau, she meets Woodes Rogers, the new governor of the Bahamas, and Hornigold's Jacobite-sympathizing nemeses, Henry Jennings and Charles Vane.

Join Abby as she lives the life of a pirate after Queen Anne's War. And yes Abby, they do hang pirateseven if they're girls.

Autorenporträt
Martin A. Frey is Professor Emeritus at The University of Tulsa where he taught for many years at The College of Law. He has written a number of paralegal textbooks and has received University and student teaching awards, but Captain Hornigold and the Pirate Republic is his first novel. Upon his retirement, he was awarded a Lifetime Service Award by the Alumni of The University of Tulsa College of Law. At his 50th law school reunion at Washington University in St. Louis, he was awarded honorary membership into the Order of the Coif.

Professor Frey was a Senior Adjunct Settlement Judge for the United States District Court for the Northern District of Oklahoma and for seven years volunteered with the Tulsa Police Department where he was assigned to the Financial Crimes Unit. While he was teaching at The University of Tulsa, Professor Frey served on a number of law school site evaluation teams for the Accreditation Committee of the American Bar Association.

He is a member of the Missouri and Oklahoma state bar associations and has been admitted to practice before the United States District Court for the Northern District of Oklahoma.

Professor Frey lives in Tulsa, where he dreams of moving to the east coast of Florida, purchasing a metal detector, and scouring the beaches after hurricanes for pieces of eight still unclaimed from the 1715 Spanish plate fleet disaster.
