Title: The Redemption Author: M.L. Tyndall Publisher: Barbour ISBN: 1-59789-359-5 Genre: Inspirational/Historical/Fiction
Lady Charlisse Bristol, is on a merchant ship sailing from London to the Caribbean in search of the father she has never met. The ship is struck by a terrible storm and goes down. Only Charlisse survives, stranded on a tiny island with very little food and no hope of rescue. Then The Redemption, a pirate ship, under the command of Captain Edmund Merrick, stops by the island. Captain Merrick takes Charlisse with them, but her situation is no less desperate. The only woman on a ship filled with morally loose pirates, she must depend on the protection of Edmund Merrick, a man she believes is no better than the others.
Merrick is a new Christian, and he has a hard time resisting his old ways and desires, and having lovely Charlisse on board doesn’t help any. Charlisse knows all about religion. Her uncle is a respected bishop, but in private he is a sadistic brute. If that’s what Christianity is all about, she wants no part of it. MaryLu Tyndall’s The Redemption, is a fascinating story, that transports the reader to the dangerous world of piracy on the high seas. If you like historical fiction, this is a must for your Need to Read list.
