Two Women. One Ship. A Treasure Worth Betrayal.

Limited preorder editions available now—claim your treasure before February 20!

What if the most infamous treasure hunt in literature had been led by women all along?

Andy Hawkins has spent fifteen years living as a boy—her father’s insurance policy against a world he doesn’t trust with daughters. Now, disguised as a cabin boy aboard the Hispaniola, she’s done playing it safe. Captain Flint’s legendary treasure means one thing to her: the freedom to finally live as herself. And she’ll risk everything to claim it.

But Andy isn’t the only woman with secrets aboard this ship.

Chen, the ship’s cook with a silver tongue and a dangerous past, has her own claim on that gold. A young woman who’s fought and bled for every scrap she’s ever had, Chen walks the knife’s edge between survival and ambition—and she’s not about to let anyone, including some idealistic cabin boy, stand between her and what she deserves.

As the Hispaniola sails toward Treasure Island, these two women must navigate treacherous waters that run far deeper than the ocean beneath them. With mutiny brewing, loyalties fracturing like rotted wood, and enough gold to remake their lives—or destroy them—Andy and Chen will discover that the deadliest betrayals aren’t always the ones you see coming.

Some storms can only be weathered by those brave enough to sail into them.

Daughter of the Black Flag reimagines Treasure Island through the eyes of two unforgettable women who refuse to let men write their stories. It’s the adventure you thought you knew—with the compass finally in the right hands.

Perfect for readers who love stories like Pirates of the Caribbean!

Discover the legendary women who ruled the waves:

Before there was Daughter of the Black Flag, there were real women who defied every expectation, seized ships, and commanded respect on the high seas. This companion guide reveals the true stories that inspired the novel.

Anne Bonny – The fiery Irish pirate who abandoned respectability for a life of plunder in the Caribbean, sailing alongside the infamous Calico Jack Rackham. Her audacity and skill with a cutlass became the stuff of legend.

Zheng Yi Sao – The brilliant strategist who commanded over 300 ships and 40,000 pirates in the South China Sea, building an empire so powerful that governments had no choice but to negotiate. She remains one of history’s most successful pirate leaders.

From the turquoise waters of the Caribbean to the South China Sea, these women defied the constraints of their time, wielding power in a world that denied them every opportunity. Their courage, cunning, and refusal to be silenced echo through the ages—and inspired the fierce heroines of Daughter of the Black Flag.

Inside, you’ll find:

• The untold history of women pirates across the centuries
• Detailed accounts of Anne Bonny’s and Zheng Yi Sao’s extraordinary lives
• The characters in Daughter of the Black Flag
• A curated reading list for deeper exploration

The age of piracy wasn’t just written by men. It’s time their true stories were told.
