"When the Sea Wolf's crew pulls a badly injured Captain Drake out of the water, the tables are turned. Will Dessa have her nemesis thrown overboard? Or can she trust him enough to join forces against the treacherous Greyfalcon? Is it true Drake has seen Jared? Or is her brother dead, like Greyfalcon told her? Fraught with danger and brimming with intrigue and surprise, Dessa's quest has brought her face-to-face with all manner of evil--mercenary pirates, a murderous queen and a pair of black-hearted brothers thirsty for vengeance. Will she ever be reunited with her long-lost twin?"--Back cover.
