Overview

Book Three of The Ravenshaw Chronicles. In 1725, Edmund Ravenshaw slips into Kingston, Jamaica, wearing respectability like a coat. Posing as a shipping agent, he aims to turn stolen silver into clean profit through sugar, rum, and molasses, one stamped paper at a time. His best opening is Old Sugar Wharf and its owner, Abigail Cavendish, a merchant widow who performs grief in public and runs accounts like a general. Edmund courts her for access and cover, but Abigail treats affection as leverage and hears lies in every line item. As bribes move through taverns, warehouses, and customs desks, Edmund's past follows him: a powerful cousin guarding the family name, a pirate with unfinished accounts, and rivals who trade rumor as currency. On an island with few doors, every signature might be a snare.
