Özet
 From New York Times bestselling author Katherine Howe comes a daring first-hand account of one young woman's unbelievable adventure as one of the most terrifying sea rovers of all time.

In Boston, as the Golden Age of Piracy comes to a bloody close, Hannah Masury - bound out to service at a waterfront inn since childhood - is ready to take her life into her own hands. When a man is hanged for piracy in the town square and whispers of a treasure in the Caribbean spread, Hannah is forced to flee for her life, disguising herself as a cabin boy in the pitiless crew of the notorious pirate Edward "Ned" Low. To earn the freedom to choose a path for herself, Hannah must hunt down the treasure and change the tides.

Meanwhile, professor Marian Beresford pieces Hannah's story together in 1930, seeing her own lack of freedom reflected back at her as she watches Hannah's transformation. At the center of Hannah Masury's account, however, lies a centuries-old mystery that Marian is determined to solve, just as Hannah may have been determined to take it to her grave.

A True Account tells the unforgettable story of two women in different worlds, both shattering the rules of their own society and daring to risk everything to go out on their own account.©2023 Katherine Howe (P)2023 Macmillian Audio Action & Adventure Genre Fiction Historical Fiction Literary Fiction Women's Adventure Women's Fiction Kurgu Korsan Boston

This is a great yarn, brilliantly written. Hannah is a fabulous character and the author puts you in the moment with her - making the unbelievable seem tangible. Marian is also a great character, although do I like the way the book ends? I'm not sure... it seems to peter out a bit. Nevertheless - I definitely recommend this book for it's energy and spirit.
