Sybil's entire life was spent scraping the bottom of the barrel, sneaking scraps, and making do with what little money her brother Walter could smuggle back to London from Nassau. But as time passes and the last delivery from her brother becomes more distant, she soon realizes that she might finally be on her own.

With nowhere left to go she ventures out across the ocean, desperately hoping to retrace her brother's footsteps. And what she uncovers is that the trail leads directly to a pirate ship filled with a conniving crew that knows more than they pretend to.

Her last hope lies in unearthing her dark family legacy and making it to her brother's last known location, a cursed island in the middle of the ocean....
