The Pirate's Daughter by Margaret Cezair-Thompson
Hi, I posted my book cover, a bit about the book and a sample chapter some time ago but can't find it anywhere. Please let me know if I need to post it again and where/how. I didn't see it in the "moving van" sliding images of books. Would love to give readers and members a taste of it here.
Thanks
Margaret
Thanks

The Pirate's Daughter by Margaret Cezair-Thompson
Description In 1946, the legendary Hollywood swashbuckler Errol Flynn arrived accidentally in Jamaica on his storm-ravaged boat. The novel, inspired by Flynn’s sojourn on the island, begins two decades after his death with a young woman who is said to be his illegitimate daughter, and it retraces the adventures of two generations of women. Set in pre- and post-colonial Jamaica, the novel unfolds a history of race, displacement, betrayal, uncommon kinships, compelling attachments, and tells of the tumultuous coming-of-age of a young woman and a new nation. I hope you enjoy the book and I welcome feedback & questions any time.
