Official synopsis Publisher
DEAD OR ALIVE… THE CARIBBEAN DOES NOT FORGIVE
I loved the detail in this adventure novel. Aaronne Colagrossi knows the sea and has researched his story well. I found this book one I could not put down. Fast paced and well written.
The author strips down the characters in their essence, as they struggle to survive.
Plot:
1635. The pirate dugout, the Chasseur, 32 feet in length and with 29 filibusters on board, is adrift after a storm in the Caribbean Sea. The long canoe is located five miles west of Cape Tiburon, a rocky headland to the southwest of Haiti-Santo Domingo, which reigns as a giant sea monster on that stretch of sea. The castaways are like lost souls languishing in an infinite asthenia: who, pushed by hunger, thirst and greed, drove them to sea. The commander of the buccaneers, a certain Pierre Le Grand, has sighted something near Cape Tiburon. There is no doubt about it: it is an enormous Spanish galleon. The pirate issues a feral cry on deck, an order to attack and by rowing their boat through the night, Le Grand first sinks his vessel, the Chasseur, and then launches his men onboard the immense warship. Alive in open waters or dead under the sea. This is the life of a pirate.
