I loved the setting and overall plot, I liked some characters, and

I'm a sucker for a happy ending

. Pirates and treasure and love and female empowerment, what's not to like? The writing was a little stiff amd some characters were flat, so this landed around 3.5/4 for me.

I didn’t love this as much as the The Lost Apothecary but still a good read.

I enjoyed this a lot more than I expected. I loved the historical fiction linked to modern events with some  realism thrown in and a touching love story.
