"Every child knows how the story ends. The wicked pirate
captain is flung overboard, caught in the jaws of the
monster crocodile who drags him down to a watery grave. But
it was not yet my time to die. It's my fate to be trapped
here forever, in a nightmare of childhood fancy, with that
infernal, eternal boy."
Meet Captain James Benjamin
Hook, a witty, educated Restoration-era privateer cursed to
play villain to a pack of malicious little boys in a
pointless war that never ends. But everything changes when
Stella Parrish, a forbidden grown woman, dreams her way to
the Neverland in defiance of Pan’s rules. From the glamour
of the Fairy Revels, to the secret ceremonies of the First
Tribes, to the mysterious underwater temple beneath the
Mermaid Lagoon, the magical forces of the Neverland open up
for Stella as they never have for Hook. And in the pirate
captain himself, she begins to see someone far more complex
than the storybook villain.
With Stella’s knowledge
of folk and fairy tales, she might be Hook’s last chance for
redemption and release if they can break his curse before
Pan and his warrior boys hunt her down and drag Hook back to
their neverending game. Alias Hook by Lisa Jensen
is a beautifully and romantically written adult fairy
tale.
