Red Sky at Morning

Description

Edward Blackbeard Teach has a good reason for everything he does. Despite what his crewmen might say, he isn't turning soft. When King George I issues a pardon for all pirates who give up their thieving ways within a year, Blackbeard sees his chance to have it all. He just needs to falsely repent within a year and then his comfortable future will be guaranteed.

He wants the easy retirement that his friend Sam Bellamy, recently perished in a sea-wreck, never had. Though he never before saw himself as a marrying man, he wants Eleanor Lewis, the girl whose fiery attitude doesn't match her demure beauty. But, Blackbeard has made many enemies over the years--men who are not prepared to forgive him just because of a royal decree. If he truly wants a life with Eleanor, he'll have to use every ounce of his cunning to defeat his adversaries ... and possibly turn back to a life on the high seas.
