On November 9, 1716, at the tender age of nine, John King became the youngest pirate in history. His mother tried to convince him that a pirate's life was not for him. But the young boy travelling onboard the Bonetta, captured by pirate captain Black Sam Bellamy, could only see the flutter of the Jolly Roger and the exciting lives of the men who live by the pirate's code. John desperately wants to join Bellamy's crew and will do anything to prove his worth to Captain Black Sam. Defying his mother is only the beginning. As John is spurred on by blind ambition, his actions become so impetuous that even Black Sam is caught off guard. Inspired by a true story.
