Itās not easy living in someone elseās world, trapped in a reality over which you have no control. But that is the story of Mike de Wolfās life ⦠literally.
The whole thing started at his friend Horaceās Greenwich Village apartment. Horace is a writer and heās decided to model one of his villains after Mike. Sounds crazy ⦠until Mike reaches to turn on a light and gets the shock of his life.
Knocked unconscious, Mike wakes up to find himself tossing in a violent ocean surf and getting slammed against the rocks. That wouldnāt be so bad if it werenāt for the bullets flying over his head, followed by the swordfight, certain to end in death ⦠if not for the wild, beautiful woman on horseback who comes to his rescue.
This isnāt the West Village anymore. Apparently itās the West Indies, some three hundred years ago, and Mike de Wolf is now Miguel Saint Raoul de Lobo, pursued across the Spanish Main by pirates, Englishman, and worse.
He doesnāt know how he got here or why, but he does know he has to get out fast. Two problems: first off, the bad guys in Horaceās stories never get out alive, and second, Mikeās not all that sure he wants to leave after all. Seems heās fallen for that wild woman on horseback⦠Whatās a guy to do? The answerās written in the skyāin a wildly original, wickedly amusing novel in which, if youāre not careful, you might just find yourself getting lost.
āAn adventure story written in the great style adventures should be written in.ā āClive Cussler
