Adventure

Mark of the Golden Dragon
L. A Meyer

Jacky Faber is stranded again! After a terrible storm at sea Jacky is blown overboard with her young Indian servant Ravi. They wake up on a strange beach and after taking out a tyrant that is running a small fishing village. They steal his boat and sail towards a place called Rangoon and Jacky must go under cover so she does not get into trouble. But they are soon found out and are taken to a Chinaman named Chopstick Charlie, Jacky makes friends with him and his daughter and helps to rescue her after she is taken captive. Together with her friends on the Nancy B. Alsop, Jacky's old ship Jacky sails back to England to try and rescue Jaimy who has become lost in his grief over Jacky's assumed death.

The second to last book. It's an adventure all of its own, even if you have not really read the rest of the series you will probably enjoy this book as it introduces new characters. I loved this book but the ending is kind of sad. My favorite part was when Jacky dressed up as an Indian girl and pretended to be a prostitute in order to kidnap Flashby to give him to Jaimy. I would recommend this book to anyone who has been reading the series. A great book I can not wait to read the last book.
