About this ebook
From the award-winning author of As the Passengers comes a witty, snarky tale of love and family, revenge and reincarnation, and pirates.
“Exciting, fascinating, spellbinding. I’d follow Saffron into the briny deep.”—Heather Brewer, author of The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod
“One of the best YA writers working today.”—The New York Times
In the late seventeenth century, famed teenage buccaneer Emer Morrisey was on the cusp of escaping the pirate life with her one true love and unfathomable riches. But before she could make that dream a reality, she was slain and cursed with “the dust of one hundred dogs,” dooming her to one hundred lives as a dog before returning to a human body—with her memories intact.
Now—having fulfilled her curse at last—she’s a contemporary American teenager. And all she needs to escape her no-good family and finally establish that luxurious life of her own is a shovel and a ride to Jamaica . . .
