She manages to evade him by hiding among a ship’s cargo but when the ship leaves port, Wendy finds herself stranded on the Jolly Roger, the most feared pirate vessel in Jocestrian waters. Worse, her brothers have been left behind. Captain James Hook is as blackhearted as they come—and Pan’s sworn enemy. If anyone can defeat Wendy’s pursuer, it’s him.
