Two lesbian pirates. One memory-stealing tyrant. And an ocean of secrets.
After her memory is stolen by the tyrannical Commander Gavon, Cevette Zarcanzi raises a pirate crew to steal her memories back. Evazina Gavon, the commander’s foster daughter (and an incarnate fragment of the soul of the goddess of death) steals back the some of the goddess’s power and joins Cevette’s crew to free women like her from the commander’s control.

Content Note: This is a book about pirates, and the times that made them. It is set in a world that echoes, but does not copy, the history of our own. It discusses colonialism, genocide, anti-Indigenous racism, parental abuse, abusive romantic relationships, and internalized prejudice. As the past still is with us today, readers may wish to be aware of these topics before reading.
