Tales of Downfall And Rebirth (2015)
“She placed third on corrected time in a Sydney–Hobart race way back in 1953, and in the decades since had logged enough miles to make it to the moon and back. In that time she had been the plaything of a builder, a manufacturing tycoon, one dot-com millionaire, and a pirate by the name of Pete Holder.
He was a nice pirate, though, if you asked him. Quite handsome in a derelict-surfer-bum sort of way, in spite of, or maybe because of, the scars. Damsels dig scars, after all. And he only ever... stole from the other pirates, and when he wasn’t doing that, he was busy rescuing said damsels and hunting hidden treasures, as the better sort of pirate is wont to do. Commendable pursuits that had furnished him fortune and glory and Jules and Fifi: a dark-haired, deadly English rose and her messy blond bestie, redneck princess to Lady Julianne’s bona fide if distant claim to the blood royal.
The fortune he’d salted about here and there. A little in the Royal Vault at Darwin.MoreLess
