Teaser Tuesday ~ The Pelican Bride ~ 2/27/18


http://thepurplebooker.com


My teaser for this week is from:

18059984

 Massacre Island
Mobile Bay, 1704

The fifty-six-gun frigate "Pelican" lunged as Genevieve Gaillain dropped six feet over its side before the canvas sling jerked her to a stop.  Clutching the sodden rope above her head, she looked up at the dark-skinned mariners straining to keep her from plummeting into what they charmingly called "the drink".  The sling swung with the motion of the ship, setting the sky tilting overhead in rhythm with the ocean's slap-slosh against the hull.

Happy Tuesday!
