Arriving back in London, decked out as a fine lady Jacky goes to call on her sweetheart Jaimy. She receives a rude welcome from his mother, who’s read about her in a book written by Amy Trevelyne, her friend from Lawson Peabody School for Young Girls in Boston. It’s titled Bloody Jack. Hearing that Jamie is to attend a race, Jacky disguises herself as a jockey to get into the track. Unfortunately, being disguised as a man, she’s taken by a press gang, and soon finds herself back in the Royal Navy and on blockade duty off the coast of France. Worse than that, the Wolverine is a hell ship governed by a vicious and dishonest captain, who has dishonorable designs on Midshipman Faber.
