Adventure

The Wake of the Lorelei Lee
L.A. Meyer

Is this the end of Jacky Faber? Have her daring escapades finally come to an end? After returning from her adventure diving for Spanish gold, she quickly bought herself a ship with some of the money that she came by during her diving (hey King George got most of it). But it seems as though someone is onto her; her old enemies Bliffil and Flashby have locked her up in New Gate prison and sentenced her to be delivered to the new colony in Australia. As if that is not enough they make her a prisoner on her own ship! But Jacky soon finds her way into the Captain's heart and is given some privileges. But what happens when the Captain dies and the randy First Mate sets his eyes on Jacky and what he has planned for her is definitely unpleasant. 

This book was one of my favorites in the series. I love it because there is a lot of victorious moments and some glorious reunions. My favorite part was when the other prison ship containing the boys catches up with Jacky's ship and Ian comes aboard and kills the First Mate because he killed his baby. I also love the part when Jacky becomes the pet of a fearsome female pirate. I would recommend this book to anyone that has been reading this series and to adults and teens who like adventures on the high seas.
