This final book of the trilogy opens as our hero is sprung from his Nassau jail cell by a comely young friend. After conveying his gratitude in the usual way, he finds himself once more entertaining thoughts of a settled life. But will the Fates allow him to pursue this dream of a quiet existence, filled with domestic pleasures?Rest assured, faithful reader, they most certainly will not.Neither they, nor their mischievous sisters, the Mortal Sins, are finished with E. Pluribus Van Slyke. Nor are the vengeful Furies, punishers of a whole catalogue of crimes, nearly all of which he's committed. Nor are the rebellious nymphs who liberate him from two subsequent imprisonments-and express their thanks for his ministrations as only nymphs know how. Nor is their father, the irrefutably mad Captain Bonnet. Nor are his fellow pirates, the ruthless Jean Lafitte and the annoyingly smug Jack Tigue. Nor is La Baza, the fiendish Cyclops now more determined than ever to rid the world of his cagy antagonist.Nor is Van Slyke's most dangerous foe of all: the Amazon queen Marpesia, a woman able to freeze men's marrow with a contemptuous sneer and whose hobbies include feeding houseguests to her attendant sharks.Is it possible there's a happy ending in store for Van Slyke? Or is he destined to spend a frustrating eternity among frolicsome mermaids, females on whom his great talent is wasted? There's only one way to find out, I'm afraid, and that's to cough up the price of this gripping yarn....
