The childre return safely to England but the pirates are captured by the English Navy and stand trial in London.

  • "A group of children, displaced by a hurricane in Jamaica, find themselves on a pirate ship. The pirates find themselves at a disadvantage."@en
  • "Annotation. The dreamlike action of this masterpiece begins among the decayed plantation houses and overwhelming natural abundance of late-nineteenth-century Jamaica before moving out onto the high seas, as Hughes tells the story of a group of children thrown upon the mercy of a crew of down-at-the-heel pirates. A best seller when it was first published in 1929, A High Wind in Jamaica was chosen by the Modern Library as one of the one hundred best novels of the twentieth century."@en
