"It's Treasure Island meets The Outsiders... a grand adventure not to be missed." -Haris Orkin, award-winning author of the James Flynn Escapades Who you are could be the thing that gets you killed. Fifteen-year-old Bonnie Hartwright has no past, no family, and one too many run-ins with the law. When she's yanked from her latest foster home and shipped off to a so-called "reform sailing camp" on the storm-lashed Carolina coast, she thinks it's just another dead end. She couldn't be more wrong. This is no ordinary camp. It's a covert training ground for the Brigands of the Compass Rose-a centuries-old secret society of teen descendants from one of history's most feared pirates. With blades in hand and sails snapping in the wind, these digital-age outcasts are preparing for a battle against a shadowy enemy that wants them-and their legacy-erased. As Bonnie is forced to master cutlass combat, cryptic sea charts, and the brutal codes of piracy, she's torn between two allies: Wilder, a reckless, magnetic thief with secrets of his own, and Reed, the brooding heir to the society's legendary founder. But as a dark, magical storm brews on the horizon, Bonnie begins to unravel a terrifying truth-one that links her forgotten past to a deadly destiny. The only way to survive is to uncover who she really is. Before the sea claims her forever. The Brigands of the Compass Rose is a pulse-pounding, high-seas adventure where ancient secrets collide with modern rebellion. Packed with romance, sword fights, and black magic, this is the YA thrill ride you didn't know you were waiting for.
