Anne is a headstrong young girl growing up in the frontier colony
of Carolina in the early eighteenth century. With the death of her
mother, and others she holds dear, Anne discovers that life is
uncertain, so best live it to the full. She rejects the confines of
conventional society and runs away to sea, finding herself in The
Bahamas, which has become a nest for pirates plaguing the West
Indies. Increasingly dissatisfied with her life, Anne meets a
charismatic former pirate, John 'Calico Jack' Rackham, and
persuades him to take up pirating again, and she won't be left
onshore. The Golden Age of Piracy is a period when frontiers were
being explored and boundaries pushed. Wayward Voyage creates a
vivid and gritty picture of colonial life in the Americas and at
sea. "Anna is a natural storyteller and a gifted writer with
colourful language that makes the reader so absorbed that they feel
they are part of the adventure." The Bahamas Historical Society
"Holmes's depiction of the rough lingo and harsh conditions on tall
ships at sea and dimly lit establishments ashore demonstrates both
historical fidelity and rich imagination." A Woman's Write
