Ah-hoy!
Jacky is back. Jacky Faber has made her way back to London by working
on a whaleship. She'll do whatever it takes to get back to her beloved
Jaimy. But, due to a misunderstanding -- so common for our Jacky
-- her reunion with Jaimy is a disaster. And it leads to poor Jacky
being pressed into service on a war ship. She is sure she will be
released as soon as it is discovered that she is a female but Jacky just
doesn't have that kind of luck. She finds herself as a midshipman
on a ship with a cruel captain with none so pleasant plans for her.
Through her cunning and a little bit of good luck, Jacky finds herself
the captain of her own ship. But, good things never seem to
last for Jacky. And what of poor Jaimy? |
