The Pirates Treasure: A romantic pirate adventure, Book 2

A treasure map carved into living flesh.

A dying man’s secret.

And a pirate so cruel he would burn the world to claim it.

Cape Town (1713). Captain Simon Verbeeck has finally found peace with his beloved wife, Maria. But when a condemned murderer whispers his last secret, the location of the lost treasure of the Santa Rosa, branded into his scarred back by the infamous Devil Harrison, Simon is dragged once more into the sea’s deadly grip.

Before he can escape, Simon is seized and chained aboard the Red Swan, the floating fortress of Harrison himself. There he discovers another prisoner, a Spanish princess whose fate is bound to his own. With Harrison demanding the secret at any cost, Simon faces brutal torment meant to shatter his body and soul.

To live, he must turn despair into defiance and forge a rebellion from the ship’s dark hold. But with time running out and Harrison’s cruelty closing in, Simon must ask himself. Can a handful of broken men rise against the devil before he loses everything he loves?

For fans of Patrick O’Brian and classic swashbuckling sagas, The Pirate’s Treasure delivers a relentless storm of survival, vengeance, and the savage price of freedom.

Set sail on the second book of Meiring Fouche’s unforgettable pirate epic today.
