What begins as survival turns into a life of adventure, loyalty, love, and transformation. As Daniel, she earns the respect of her crew and the trust of a principled young captain.
But secrets don't stay buried forever.
Spanning sea battles, royal courts, and quiet moments of courage, this is the story of one girl who became a legend not by pretending to be someone else - but by daring to become herself.

"The war made her a soldier. The sea made her free."
