The Sea Hawk by
Brenda Adcock is a time-traveling pirate adventure.
Dr. Julia Blanchard is a marine archeologist working on the
Georgia coast. She and her team are slowing exploring and excavating the ship
they are calling the Georgia Peach.
She knows it is not the safest plan, but she has to get one more look at the
ship. She takes her boat out and anchors to the buoy. But the shadow of another
boat looms above as she is diving.
Once her friends realize she is missing, Julia is floating
near the marker buoy hoping for a rescue. Unfortunately, a storm is coming in.
Rescue boats will not be sent out until it passes. At which point Julia will
have been blown away from the sight of the wreck.
Just when Julia is starting to give up hope, a ship come by.
When she is brought on board she is sure it is some kind of reenactment. But it
soon seems like she is actually back in the 1800s.
Before Julia can get comfortable on her strange rescue ship,
that ship is attacked by pirates. Julia is taken captive by a female pirate
named Simone Moreau on her ship Le Faucon
de Mer. The very ship Julia has been excavating.
Adcock has written a great tale of romance set in two
different time periods, perfect for anyone who like stories of swashbuckling
female pirates.
