โฆ Synopsis
What if you had an inner calling that went against all society expected of you?
1813
The infamous Jean Laffite roams New Orleans, the Gulf of Mexico, Barataria, the Mississipi and the Lafourche rivers. His business? Smuggling and general piracy. When Inspector Gilbert decides to tackle the smuggling affairs, Jean takes action. But then a woman interferes with his plans--even gains the favor of his crew. Will she be his downfall?
The Adventuress is the first in the historical fiction novella series One Virtue and a Thousand Crimes that features the compelling woman pirate Cosma Wolfe, Jean Laffite a la James Bond and local antagonists that meet in the sizzling historical context of the Golden Age of Piracy. If you like a pirate merger of Sherlock Holmes and Outlander, then you'll love Mira Kanehl's page-turning series.
