Jolly Roger — Gary Alan Ruse
Two time-traveling special agents and a feisty young lady pirate captain join forces to prevent the course of history from being changed.
Zane Kirby and Gus McAbee travel back from the future to the Bahamas of 1717, where pirates rule the waves and Spanish gold is the prize that attracts them. The two agents of the Federal Bureau of Temporal Regulation must find a renegade from their own day--Roger Turnbuckle--before the modern weapons he has smuggled back through time to the pirates of the past can upset the balance of power in the Caribbean and change history.
This science fiction adventure comedy adds a new twist to pirate lore, by the author of “The Pluck of O'Reilly,” “The Cross of St. Anne,” “Murder in Deer Park” and “Mysteries at Midnight,” as well as five earlier novels and numerous stories in magazines and anthologies.
