Under Lock and Key

The harbor is filled with merchant fleets of steamboats. Traveling the world, they leave a little piece of every culture within Hong Kong, the largest trade center in Asia. The city itself is a staggering mix of European and Asian culture.
Eighteen year old Brooks is avoiding her competitors and the law, her shady reputation working as an asset rather than a weakness. Mr. Y has been her employer for years, and finds her skills to be unmatched by any other. Despite her supposed success she wants an out. She has to find the truth...a task that is impossible in the darkness of her profession. Forced to leave everything behind and work as a sailor on an old-fashioned Clipper ship, her wit and skill will do little to keep her alive at sea. Will Brooks escape Mr. Y and bring honour to her name, or will the unexplored oceans take her to the end of their depths?
