La très catastrophique visite du zoo

Joël Dicker

Description

The tide bore their names long before love made them a legend.

Danna Chadwick knows the sea's price, and she's paid it in blood. Heiress to a legendary pirate lineage and commander of her island's fleet, she's spent years defending her people from the sea dragon that left her with scars both seen and hidden. But when a brutal sea battle binds her fate to the North Sea's most dangerous pirate, the walls she's built threaten to crumble. With her heart caught between vengeance and desire, Danna must decide if the future she's fought for is worth the cost—or if risking everything for the pirate king will be the choice that breaks her.

Robert "The Ruthless" Jaymes is destined for power, but destiny is no guarantee of loyalty. Upon his father's death, he inherits not only a crown but a kingdom steeped in betrayal. Determined to unite the fractured pirate lords beneath his banner, Robert will stop at nothing to claim what is owed. But when his ambitions collide with a fierce island captain who answers to no one, Robert discovers that some treasures are harder to claim and far more dangerous to keep.

He's the pirate king who takes what he wants.

She's the captain who refuses to kneel.

Together, they'll either conquer the seas or destroy each other.

With alliances built on blood and betrayals lurking beneath the waves, Danna must decide if her destiny lies anchored to the island she swore to protect or with the pirate who threatens to steal her heart. And Robert must choose between the crown he's fought for and the woman who could unravel it all.
