Publisher's Synopsis
In a town governed by cruel traditions, young Mayra has always longed for freedom-especially after the day her mother is unjustly put to death. Desperate to escape the same fate, she flees her oppressive home and finds herself aboard the Wind Raider, a pirate ship captained by the ruthless Captain Malin. As she navigates this treacherous new life, Mayra utilizes her gift for languages and becomes the ship's translator, a role that places her closer to the captain's dangerous ambitions.
But when she meets a mysterious girl with a shadowy past, Mayra begins to unravel a secret even darker than the treasure they're hunting. This girl might be the key to untold riches-or a force capable of shattering everything the crew has fought for.
Torn between loyalty, love, and survival, Mayra must decide who she can trust as she sails into a storm of betrayal, magic, and destiny. Will she help unlock the treasure's power, or will the truth sink them all?
In this high-seas adventure filled with peril, intrigue, and daring, nothing is as it seems, and the greatest treasures come with a drop of blood.
