  • "The Caribbean, 1665. A remote colony of the English Crown, the island of Jamaica holds out against the vast supremacy of the Spanish empire. Port Royal, its capital, is a cutthroat town of taverns, grog shops, and bawdy houses. In this steamy climate there's a living to be made, a living that can end swiftly by disease -- or by dagger. For Captain Charles Hunter, gold in Spanish hands is gold for the taking, and the law of the land rests with those ruthless enough to make it. Word in port is that the galleon El Trinidad, fresh from New Spain, is awaiting repairs in a nearby harbor. Heavily fortified, the impregnable harbor is guarded by the bloodthirsty Cazalla, a favorite commander of the Spanish king. With backing from a powerful ally, Hunter assembles a crew of ruffians to infiltrate the enemy outpost and commandeer the ship, along with its fortune in Spanish gold. The raid is as perilous as the bloodiest tales of island legend, and Hunter will lose more than one man before he even gets to shore, where dense jungle and the firepower of Spanish infantry stand between him and the treasure."@en

  • "'Fast-moving, gripping' Daily Mail 'Full of non-stop action, danger, thrills and blood'GUARDIAN Jamaica 1665. A lone British outpost in Spanish-controlled Caribbean waters. Its capital, Port Royal, a cutthroat town of taverns and bawdy houses - is the last place anyone would expect an attack to be launched on a Spanish stronghold. Yet that is the plan of renowned privateer Captain Charles Hunter and Charles II's ruling governor, Sir James Almont. The target is the sheer-cliffed and impregnable Matanceros, guarded by the bloodthirsty Cazalla. Hunter's ragtag crew of buccaneers must brave raging hurricanes, cannibals, sea monsters and the Spanish fleet, but if they succeed they will make history ... and a fortune in gold. 'Up there with the best of his work' DAILY TELEGRAPH."
  • "La Jamaïque, 1665. Port Royal, la capitale, est un véritable coupe-gorge où il n'est pas prudent de s'installer. Pourtant, le capitaine Edward Hunter y voit un lieu favorable pour faire fortune, il suffit seulement de s'y entendre en piraterie. Bientôt, la nouvelle circule qu'un galion espagnol plein de trésors est à quai dans le port voisin de Matanceros...--[Memento]."

  • "A multimedia phenomenon,Michael Crichton is the only writer to simultaneously have a number-one book, movie, and TV show. A complete manuscript found among the late author?s files, Pirate Latitudes is an adventure tale unlike anything Crichton has ever written. Set in the Caribbean in 1665, the tale features bands of grog-swilling cutthroats and stunning action sequences played out on the high seas."@en
