The Stern Chase

Outnumbered but determined, the Herons are ready for action. The scene is set for an epic battle at sea. For years, the Skandians have protected the Stormwhite Sea from piracy. However, their new role as guardians has earned them enemies who strike at Hallasholm, damaging ships and stealing the fleet's pride. Hal's ship, the newly rebuilt Heron, was spared as it was undergoing repairs. Hal, the Heron brotherband, and Oberjarl Erak embark on a mission to find their stolen ship Wolfwind. During their quest, they discover that the thieves are using Wolfwind to plunder and falsely implicate the Skandians. Hal must stop the pirates and their sinister plan. Follow the Brotherband in their battle against an Iberian pirate raiding ship in the ninth installment of the Brotherband Chronicles by John Flanagan.
