What if a slave could escape her life of pain and misery? What if that same slave was able to live in freedom and make profit? And what if she used her Letter of Marque to do the same for others? Well, she did... Tempest is no stranger to hard work or danger. She lived the first 13 years of her life in slavery on a plantation on the island of Jamaica, and her name was Amma. Having fled the plantation, slavery of a different kind threatens, but that cannot hold her, either! For more than three years Tempest has tasted freedom and it is a flavor she enjoys. Now the threat of slavery has raised its ugly head, once more. It is not a fruit Tempest intends to eat of ever again, and neither will those she has chosen to help!
