After a devastating hurricane ravages their Jamaican plantation, the Bas-Thornton children are sent on a voyage to England by their parents. En route, their ship is overrun by pirates, and the children are brought into a world of violence and moral ambiguity, with their innocence at stake.
A High Wind in Jamaica, originally named The Innocent Voyage, is Richard Hughes’ first and most celebrated novel. Credited for influencing Lord of the Flies, the book was inspired by an unpublished report written by someone who had been taken hostage by pirates as a child.
