Sickness. Sharks. Sabotage. Secrecy.
In the rolling hills of 1600’s Ireland, young Éirinn O’Connell learns all she can of medicine, struggling to care for her starving family—until the night Barbary pirates raid her village, and she’s dragged from the only home she’s ever known.
Set on a course to the slave markets of Morocco, and amidst a crew as turbulent as the ocean around her, Éirinn searches for a way home. But who can she trust? And how will she survive the Captain’s constant torment? Éirinn soon discovers the danger in trusting appearances and learns that it’s never too late for a second chance.
Even for the unlikeliest of people.

Intrigued yet?
E.G. Bella has finally released her long-awaited debut novel, Cabin Girl, a YA novel about pirates, faith, and family! It sounds like an absolutely epic, swashbuckling ride, and I can’t wait to dive into the story of young Éirinn O’Connell! ⚓
