Opis

1677. Seventeen-year-old Hector Lynch wakes to the sound of a pistol shot as the Barbary corsairs raid his Irish village, and he and his sister are snatched. Hector is sold at auction in Algiers, and thrown into a bewildering world where life is cheap and only the quick-witted survive. In North Africa, Hector befriends fellow captive Dan, a Miskito Indian from the Caribbean. Desperate to find his sister, Hector finally stumbles on the chilling truth of her fate when he and Dan are shipwrecked on the coast of Morocco.
