About the Book

This novel is inspired by the true story of my ancestor who was born to a Danish father and an African mother on the Guinea or West Coast of Africa in the 1800's. After his father leaves Africa, he has this idea to go to Denmark to visit him. He is thrown overboard shortly after the ship sets sail and he ends up two countries over in the country of Benin. His story is told when he makes his way back to his hometown Keta and is part of the legends of the bravery and exploits of our ancestors. Though this novel is a fictional account of what happened to my ancestor, the timelines stating the onset of colonization, the historical events in the Caribbean and Europe are accurate. This is a really a fictional story is woven around historically accurate events. In 1850, when Hans Køndo Quist, Kø, decides to leave his family in Quitta, a small town on the Guinea (West) Coast of Africa, to visit his Danish father in Denmark, he causes a major pandemonium! He braves the discrimination and malice of his foes, herculean hurricanes, and backbreaking labor aboard the ship, "The Pharaoh". But a beautiful blue-eyed vixen causes him to be thrown overboard. He finds himself between the devil and the deep, blue sea when he wakes up on an Island in the Caribbean, in the shanty of a young, exotic prostitute, Daffodil. Kø, Daffodil and some recently emancipated slaves whom he meets on the Island are desperate for one thing ... to leave the island and achieve true freedom. There is only one person who can help them get off the Island...Daffodil's lover, a red-haired Scottish pirate with a nefarious agenda! By masterful planning, guerrilla warfare and outright war, they intercept pirates' plans, steal his ship and he finally finds the truth about his birth and the circumstances of his father's seeming abandonment.
