Sea Wolf (a Compass Rose Novel, 2) - (A Compass Rose Novel) by Anna Burke (Paperback)

About the Book

For Compass Rose, her ongoing mission aboard a mercenary ship brings an unexpected conflagration of adventure, danger, and romance.

Book Synopsis

In the year 2514, the only thing more dangerous than the seas is those who sail them.

Life aboard the mercenary ship Man o' War is rarely dull as hurricanes, swarms of jellyfish, and man-eating squid pose daily doses of danger. As intrigue and subterfuge from enemies old and new begin to surround its captain, the infamous Miranda Stillwater, even an uncanny sense of direction won't be enough to help Compass Rose navigate these dangerous straits. As dark secrets bubble to the surface and everything she's fought so hard for begins to crumble, Rose learns the hard way that she'll have to rely on the only person who can save her from certain disaster. Unfortunately, that person is Compass Rose herself.

This swashbuckling 26th-century high-seas adventure novel is fast-paced, whip-smart, and quirky, yet it manages to deliver a healthy dose of heart, humor, and humility on every single page.
