Beskrivelse
Leela knows better than most that reputations are fragile things, easily destroyed, hard to remake. Her own reputation has been mired in ugly suspicion and deep-seated fear since before she was born. Lucky to have survived this long given her dark reputation, Leela lives as an outcast in the far fringes of Colonial Charles Town and considers herself blessed to be a barmaid at a dubious tavern on Sullivan's Island, frequented by outlaws, mercenaries, and pirates. One black night, word arrives of a strange inheritance followed shortly by a set of murderous strangers, armed to the teeth, who will stop at nothing to keep the truth of Leela's past a secret. Leela realizes that truth has consequences, and those consequences quickly prove lethal. Hunted for reasons she does not understand, Leela finds she must lean heavily on her Christian faith and unfortunately, on a mercenary pirate, who despite his own set of deadly risks, is willing to help solve the mystery of Leela's past...for a price, of course.
