Her family name tainted by her great-grandfather’s crimes of piracy, Meriden Cummings is far from the
typical 18th century woman. A social outcast, she works in a carpentry shop in a small village, where the
people barely tolerate unconventional behavior.However, her life takes a turn after a gang of pirates attack her village and her blood reveals an ancient
map adorned with Mayan glyphs leading to Death Island. An island legends say is ruled by the Mayan
god of the underworld, Ah Puch. Her great-grandfather had sought after the island before he vanished
without a trace. Now, Meriden is about to journey across the sea to understand her family history.There are only a few problems: her growing feelings toward a mysterious stranger linked to her greatgrandfather’s
past; a greedy band of pirates after her great-grandfather’s legendary treasure; and a
contract she has unwittingly signed in blood with Ah Puch himself.
