"I remember the black wharves and the slips... And the beauty and mystery of the ships, the magic of the sea."-- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, "My Lost Youth"
----------
Cordelia never wanted it to happen.
Since the drowning of her father, her mother and Cordelia are running away from the memories, so when they moved back to North Carolina, it was hard for both of them. Cordelia had no intention of being anywhere near the Ocean, but when she was kidnapped by pirates she had no choice.
She was captured by the Pirate King and has to hide her identity from him otherwise she would be killed. She goes under the name of Romeo and befriends another kidnapped boy, Flake. Together they look after each other on the Pirate Ship, hoping to survive each day.
Cordelia and Flake must survive all of the obstacles that the Pirate King throws at them from dangerous pirates to mermaids and hidden terrors of the deep blue Sea. She must rely on lies to keep her safe, but with so many lies who can she trust?
Cordelia has a chance to discover lost secrets and hidden wonders in her journey to find her freedom and to unearth her past.

The dark waters| ✓
I won't survive. I'm sure of it. Strong wind ruffles through my clothes and hardly allows my eyes to remain open. I'm surprised that I'm still standing on the rock and haven't been tossed into the whirlwind. Huge waves crash down upon the rocks making deafening sounds. I open my eyes wide enough to see the next wave coming. As it comes towards the rock, it reaches the height of a three-storey building and seems to loom over me for some time, like a monster looking at its prey with hungry eyes, before finally crashing down towards me like a waterfall. While it comes down one single thought comes in my mind. This is how I die. Then the waters devour me. ___________________________________________ What's the worst crime you could ever commit?
