Produktbeschreibung

London, 1701, Captain Kidd's hung for piracy on a cold London afternoon. Blackguard street gang members Johnny and Rake discover the map to Kidd's hidden treasure during a heist, but they aren't the only ones in the hunt for treasure. Slave trader Schlitz is always one step away. Signed up to a merchant Canadian trader's ship the boys take to the seas on the run and in search of riches.

Captain Corso and his pirate crew take over their ship The Argosy in North African waters. Rake falls overboard and Johnny signs the pirate articles. At sea he learns the pirate code and has his first taste of freedom..

From street kid to pirate the quest takes the boys to Tangiers, Madagascar, Ayutthaya and eventually leads to Port Royal - The Wickedest Town on Earth - where Captain Kidd's treasure is said to rest. Can Johnny bag the prize and return to London?

Or will the deadly Port swallow him whole? Port of Thieves is a swashbuckling historic international adventure from the author who has been described as "terrifically gifted, enormously energetic," by Edgar Nominee Timothy Hallinan, and a writer who "strips away the bull****" by Shamus Winner Christopher G. Moore.

Step inside this tale and witness prolific novelist J.D. Strange deliver a pirate yarn with more twists and turns than a weaver's knot.
