Book excerpt: World-renowned reptile and big-game hunter Captain Bloodfoot and his crew of beautiful women embark on a mission to hunt and kill a nuisance great white shark off the Coast of Socotra Island. Their tranquil cruise through the Gulf of Aden suddenly turns disastrous when pirates attack, sinking his sailing ship and taking the crew for ransom. The lead pirate, Abduljameel soon realizes he took on more than he bargained for when his hostages escape and exact revenge. Captain Virgil Goodman and his illustrious crew learn about the fate of Bloodfoot and upon hearing the news that help will not arrive in time to save his head, find no other choice but to go on an adventurous rescue operation to free their friend before it’s too late. With the deadline looming before Bloodfoot is beheaded and corrupt military men hunting the hostages, it’s a madcap adventure set on a strange island. You’ll start to wonder who’s chasing who in this second novel of the Virgil Goodman adventure series.

Book excerpt: There's a hard-boiled plot that starts with a disaster at sea. There's stolen gold and gun-play. There's suspense, there's a good guy, some really bad guys, and at least two complex characters who contain a modern amount of both good and bad. One of whom is a dame. Wait, I don't think that word came into fashion until a couple of decades after this book was written. But, still, it seems to fit.

I found the dear old Lady Jermyn on the very eve of sailing, with a new captain, a new crew, a handful of passengers (chiefly steerage), and nominally no cargo at all. I felt none the less at home when I stepped over her familiar side. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: You mean when Ready asked him if we were out of our course? I must say I thought it was a silly question to put. It was the same the other evening about the cargo. If the skipper says we're in ballast why not believe him? Why repeat steerage gossip, about mysterious cargoes, at the cuddy table? Captains are always touchy about that sort of thing. I wasn't surprised at his letting out.
