The Buccaneers

“There’s pirates in the West Indies. Cannibals. The cook you alive” says Mr.Spencer to his son. These words will haunt him for seventeen-year-old John as he embarks on his first voyage to foreign lands. Carrying cargo detained for Jamaica, John and his crew of the Dragon set off from London for waters few of them have sailed. So when they com upon a life boat adrift at sea, some are wary of the sailor aboard. His name is Horn, And something about his story doesn’t quite make sense.
