Description
A historical mystery that blends nautical adventure in pirate waters with a locked-room murder mystery, featuring a pirate sleuth whose wits are as sharp as his blade.
1723—Spider John, longing to escape the pirate life he never wanted, has an honest seafaring job at last, aboard a sailing vessel, and is returning to his beloved Em and their child. But when Captain Brentwood is murdered in his cabin, Spider's plans are tossed overboard.
Who killed Redemption's captain? The mysterious pirate with a sadistic past? The beautiful redhead who hides guns beneath her skirt? One of the men pining for the captain's daughter? There are plenty of suspects.
But how could anyone kill the captain in his locked quarters while the entire crew was gathered together on the deck? Before he can solve the puzzle, Spider John and his ex-pirate friends Hob and Odin will have to cope with violence, schemes, nosy Royal Navy officers, and a deadly trap set by the ruthless pirate Ned Low.

Starred review from July 2, 2018
Goble’s excellent second historical featuring pirate Spider John Rush improves on its predecessor, 2017’s The Bloody Black Flag. In 1723, Spider John is lying low in Port Royal, Jamaica, hoping to put his pirate career behind him, until someone recognizes him in a crowd witnessing the hanging of a former shipmate; he barely escapes capture before boarding a merchant vessel bound for Boston, the Redemption. That one of the passengers is Sam Smoke, who previously sailed with Ned Low, a pirate even more vicious than Blackbeard, unsettles John, and he finds himself in more peril after a shooting death in a locked room, a tragedy that necessitates a visit to the ship from members of a Royal Navy frigate escorting the Redemption. Though the victim appears to have shot himself, John spots evidence to the contrary and embarks on a search for the killer while trying to remain at liberty. Goble adroitly combines action and deduction. Agent: Evan Marshall, Evan Marshall Agency.
