This nautical adventure for children is set in 1813, when England was at war with France and America. Eleven-year-old Kate Griffiths is living with her mean aunt, awaiting the call to join her parents in America. Her only escape from her life of drudgery is when she disguises herself as a boy and walks down by the docks. One day, entirely by accident, she finds herself on board a ship and in the rope school of one of His Majesty's sloops of war. Under the watchful eye of the mysterious Jago, Kate learns all about knots and the harsh realities of shipboard life. Once on the high seas, she encounters mystery, adventure, treachery and surprise. Sam Llewellyn's previous books include "Pegleg", "Pig in the Middle" and "The Magic Boathouse".
