"I am Nathanael J. E. Blackthorne, the pirate captain. Please, reserve your accolades regarding me fame and conquests for another time. During the year of our lord 1753, I was sailing the West Indies, minding the oars in me own boat, pursuing me sole purpose in life: to disrupt the unholy alliance of two corrupt men, to destroy their lives as they destroyed mine. I mistakenly kidnap Catherine Mackenzie-wrong person, easy mistake, you understand-and me life went arsey-turvey. Having lost hearth and heart to the Jacobite War, and wanted for war crimes, Cate has the grit and savvy to have survived years destitute and alone in the cesspool known as London. When arrest seems imminent, Cate, through whose eyes this story is told, buys passage on the first ship away. Now, Cate desires but one thing: a place to belong.Alas, if it were only that simple.This is a story of scarred and blinded people.It's the story of trust, or rather, the lack of. It's the story of loss of faith and the disbelief that Providence might ever smile again.Have you the courage to join us?"

In that process, he discovers there is no outrunning his past; it comes back to haunt him in the most graphic way. Worst yet, he finds that there are consequences for every action, and that those around him are the ones to suffer that the most.The Caribbean Sea isn't big enough for Nathan, Thomas and Creswicke. Paths cross... and sparks fly.

En route, she is kidnapped-a case of mistaken identity by CAPTAIN NATHANAEL BLACKTHORNE, the pirate captain. Accustomed to blood, musket, and cannon, life aboard the pirate ship isn't the hell Cate expects. She is instantly drawn into Nathan's bloody rivalry against LORD BREASTON CRESWICKE-the man who forced Nathan into piracy-and COMMODORE ROGER HARTE, Creswicke's puppet.
