From the #1 internationally bestselling author comes a thrilling new tale of adventure, danger, and action
The Malabar coast is full of dangers: greedy traders, fearless pirates, and men hell-bent on vengeance. But for a member of the legendary Courtney clan, the greatest peril might be his own family . . .
When his stepfather’s gambling debts leave him a marked man, Francis Courtney flees the comfort of his grand country estate. Penniless, he travels to South Africa with revenge and fortune on his mind: His uncle Tom Courtney killed Francis’s father, and Francis plans on repaying the debt—and making his fortune in the bargain. However, upon his arrival in Cape Town, he finds his whole world upturned.
Christopher Courtney sets out to make his own way in the world, giving up his privileged position as the son of the Governor of Bombay. Time and misfortune carve him into a fierce warrior, but they also harden his soul and lead him to more violence and treachery.
As the lives of the two Courtney men collide, the sins of the fathers will forever change the fate of a younger generation . . .
