TRES BON
Sea bandits stole her freedom.
She has one way to get them back:
Become the most powerful pirate in the world.
South China coast, 1801: Sold as a child to a floating brothel, 26-year-old Yang has finally bought her freedom, only to be kidnapped by a brutal pirate gang and forced to marry their leader.
Dragged through stormy seas and lawless bandit havens, Yang must stay scrappy to survive. She embeds herself in the dark business of piracy, carving out her role against the resistance of powerful pirate leaders and Cheung Po Tsai, her husband’s flamboyant male concubine.
Caught between bitter rivals fighting for mastery over the pirates—and for her heart—Yang faces a choice between two things she never dreamed might be hers: power or love.
Based on a true story that has never been fully told until now, The Flower Boat Girl is the tale of a woman who, against all odds, shaped history on her own terms.

Une passionnante découverte de l'histoire de Cheng Yat Sou/Madame Ching/Ching Shih. Tous les personnages sont soignés, l'intrigue palpitante et les recherches historiques de l'auteur sont impressionnantes. Un peu triste de quitter Cheng Yat Sou si vite, tant le reste de sa carrière semble tout aussi fascinante.
