The Sea Hawk (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781438510064)

The Sea Hawk is an historical adventure set in the reign of Elizabeth I. The blue waters of the Mediterranean are harried and pillaged by the Barbara corsairs led by Sakr-el-Bahr, The Sea Hawk, whose merciless scimitar strikes terror into the heart of every voyager and whose ruthlessness has sent thousands to a lingering death at the oars of Moorish galleys. Sir Oliver, a Cornish sea faring gentleman and commander of one of her majesty's ships sets out on an odyssey of piracy, passion and plunder from the shores of England to the bloody coast of Arabia. Tressillian has been betrayed by a jealous half-brother. After being forced to serve as a slave on a Spanish galley, Sir Oliver is liberated by Barbary pirates. He is given the name Sakr-el-Bahr, which means the Hawk of the Sea. He swears vengeance on his brother.
