The Ruby of Kishmoor

Captain Keitt began his life on the Jamaican coast as a respectable merchant, but the lure of the African trade soon steered him toward piracy. His reputation vaulted to legend when he seized the Rajah of Kishmoor’s prized vessel, The Sun of the East, rescuing a queen adorned with a massive, blood‑red ruby that glittered like a kingdom’s fortune. The sheer scale of the loot—gold, jewels, and that unparalleled gem—propelled him from obscurity to the most feared name on the seas.

Now a celebrated freebooter, Keitt finds himself the quarry of countless expeditions eager to reclaim the stolen wealth. Seeking refuge in the West Indies, he lands in Port Royal, only to face a fresh danger when the ruby vanishes from the pirates’ share. Accusations swirl, and his own crew begins to suspect the very captain who brought them fame, setting the stage for a tense showdown that could cost him more than treasure.
