Born and raised on the pirate ship Red Witch, the lovely Brandy Erasmus lost her parents, the most feared pirate couple of the Caribbean, Eric Erasmus aka The Plague and The Scarlet Mistress, at a young age. She is content running a tavern near the docks in Kingston, Jamaica, with her uncle. When First-Mate of Great Britain\u2019s most beloved sea captain, John Edwards, arrives in Brandy\u2019s tavern, the spark flies immediately. But Brandy soon finds herself confronted with an impossible choice. Hendrickson\u2019s straightforward prose doesn\u2019t dwell much on the details of the Caribbean life but successfully evokes the era nonetheless. The battle scenes are marvellously crafted, and Hendrickson\u2019s descriptions of butchery with the flintlock pistols and rifles are convincing. Meticulous historical facts add to the authenticity. Throw in the larger-than-life heroic characters, a fast-moving, action-packed plot, and plenty of twists and turns, and you have got a winner.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Brandy, Ballad of a Pirate Princess\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Dan E.
