Fantasy Steampunk
"This is a race against time. Against oneself. This is the
Vendée Globe, the most grueling race around the world.
Singlehanded. No stopovers. On board is Laurel
Benson-Desmarais, a thirty-six-year-old racer from a family
of sailors. Five foot and a quarter inch of pure adrenaline
junkie. One hundred and forty-seven pounds of
thrill-seeking, motor-mouth, caffeine-addict of a woman who
redefines the word “stubborn determination". Laurel’s
venture starts admirably. Day one of the race sees her well
in advance. Until the meteorological forecasts start messing
with her patience. The mother of all storms is gathering
speed. Heading straight for the race. For the first time
in its history, the Vendée Globe is annulled due to bad
weather. She’s worked years for this but has to turn the
boat around. She’s not fast enough. The storm catches up
with her, tosses the 60-foot sloop as if it were a bit of
cork. Electricity crackles in the air. Spray hits her like
rocks. Then as she pitches into a mountain-size wave,
everything changes. The water, the very air. As if she
crossed over to another world. Crazy. Phineas Hamilton,
captain of the brigantine the Brass Baron, never thought he
would one day run into a woman who physically looks like the
enemy, with pale hair and eyes, but yet is not one of them.
The exotic prisoner is also the most obstinate,
argumentative, confrontational…and fascinating woman he has
ever met. He does not really care where she hails from and
what brought her to his ship—no one speaks to him that way.
And certainly not on his own damn ship! A lesson in manners
is most definitely in order. But for now, he must make sure
his crew and ship survives the latest enemy attack. They all
depend on him. Another link to the long chain he carries.
