Beschreibung

The Sunday Times Number One Bestseller

'I adored it' - Santa Montefiore, bestselling author of Wait For Me

A sweeping and epic love story, The Ghost Ship is a swashbuckling tale of adventure and buccaneering, love and revenge, stolen fortunes and hidden secrets on the high seas.

The Barbary Coast, 1621. A mysterious vessel floats silently on the water - its hull splintered and its sails tattered and burnt. For months the Ghost Ship has hunted pirates to liberate enslaved prisoners. Now it, too, finds itself hunted.

But the ship's crew hides a secret, and the stakes could not be higher. The bravest among them are not what they seem: if arrested, they will hang for their alleged crimes. Can they survive their journey and escape their fate?

A breathtaking story of love and piracy, steeped in historical detail, The Ghost Ship is the third volume in Kate Mosse's No. 1 international bestselling Joubert Family Chronicles. The adventure concludes with The Map of Bones.

Praise for The Joubert Family Chronicles:

'Gripping, complex and intensely atmospheric' - The Mail on Sunday on The Burning Chambers

'A historical epic' - The Observer on The City of Tears

'I couldn't put it down' - Louise Minchin, broadcaster and author of Isolation Island, on The Ghost Ship

Rezensionen

That rare thing, a novel with vast scope and ambition, brilliantly achieved, but also deeply personal, finely detailed and nuanced. I was utterly immersed in this spell-binding story Rosamund Lupton on The City of Tears

Another meticulously researched and stunningly written novel by a much-loved and highly accomplished author. I adored it! Santa Montefiore, bestselling author of An Italian Girl in Brooklyn
