February's book is a historical fantasy novel following a retired, middle-aged pirate captain coerced into one last job to rescue a former crewmate's granddaughter... so something we can all relate to!!!

The novel blends historical accuracy with Arabian folklore, with a focus on a mature protagonist balancing her past with her responsibilities.
