A Lady and a Pirate Lady Dona St. Columb, young, beautiful, and the toast of every rake in town, fled from the wild life of London's court society and drinking houses. She found refuge at Navron, her bleak and lonely estate on the Cornwall coast. She
thought she was alone there until she detected the unmistakable aroma of pipe tobacco in her bedroom. Then there was a
mysterious ship hidden in the creek and a
Frenchman who was an artist in many
mediums: bird-sketches, piracy, and love, her experience as his cabin
boy on a raid on the English coast, a
wild encounter with the gentry who
had sworn to hang the Frenchman, from the highest tree in the park. |
