Omschrijving

Born into poverty in England, shaped by hunger, violence, and loss, Martha learned early that survival often depended on silence and endurance rather than courage or glory. As a young mother transported to the American colonies as a convict, her life was already governed by laws that stripped her of autonomy and choice. When a desperate voyage along the North Carolina coast spirals into piracy, Martha finds herself trapped aboard ships taken by force, witnessing violence she neither planned nor committed, while protecting her children below deck.

Martha Farley: Whispers Below Deck is a historically accurate adventure rooted in primary records, revealing the life of a woman whose story has been reduced to a footnote in piracy history. It is a novel about listening instead of shouting, endurance instead of conquest, and survival without applause. The book includes a real historical timeline of Martha Farley's life in the back to help dispel myth and separate documented fact from speculation.

"Piracy without romance is somehow all the more powerful when it's an unflinching, immersive, historically precise story such as this." - Helena Johnson, Historian
