Produktbeschreibung

Imagine a time when a fifteen-year-old is expected to take on adult responsibilities, to go to war, and to consider marriage.
Imagine a time when only a few consider slavery to be evil; when imperial France flexes its muscle and the sailing ship is the pinnacle of human engineering.
That time was the year 1800, a mere 220 years ago.

A romantic encounter with a disastrous outcome. A suspicious accident. An unexpected voyage. Young Martin finds himself an active participant in the African slave trade.
Copenhagen, to Portsmouth, to Madeira, to Freetown, to Accra, to St. Croix. Martin meets new friends and enemies, romance, deadly peril, and personal tragedy.

On the scorched soil of Africa, he reaches his breaking point.

Autorenporträt

An avid reader from an early age, I often pondered writing stories of my own. But only towards the end of my life did I try my hand at the craft. Initially, I believed writing a novel would be rather easy.
How naïve of me. It was anything but.

Two years and many, many revisions, including deleting at least 25000 words, later I was done.
Could the book have benefitted from further revisions?
Likely. But eventually one has to conclude that enough is enough and start a new project.
