1718: Within Colonial Williamsburg, Virginia and the Outer Banks of North Carolina a true-life battle raged between the notorious Pirate King Blackbeard and the military forces of Alexander Spotswood, Royal Governor of Virginia. Among Blackbeard's crew was an 11 year-old French boy named Louis Arot whom finds himself in a colonial jail and set to hang for the crime of piracy. Join Miss Savannah Squirrel in her second colonial adventure as she embarks on another journey of discovery. With new friends and high stakes, Savannah marshals all the resources of a posh and polite squirrel to navigate the complexities of early-American commerce, politics and maritime law to try and save a young boy from the hangman's noose. The result is a gripping story as exciting as a ride on a runaway carriage and as dangerous as tempting Lady Fortuna on an angry sea.
