Description - Wild Rover No More: Being the Last Recorded Account of the Life and Times of Jacky Faber by L A Meyer
Twists and turns and hijinks fromo the spunky, unstoppable Jacky Faber. ***NOMINATED FOR 2015 KIRKUS PRIZE*** Jacky Faber is framed as passing confidential U.S. information to the British. Forced to flee Boston, she goes undercover as a governess for a prominent Puritan family. When outed by a nosy postmaster, she deserts the respectability of her position, dons a leotard and slippers, and poses as a Russian tightrope walker in a travelling circus. But the law soon catches up with her, and prospects do not look good. Through her many adventures, Jacky has always found the ingenuity to escape dire situations, but this time it looks like Puss in Boots has run out of lives . . . and her happily-ever-after will be cut short at the foot of the gallows. AGES: 14+ AUTHOR: L. A. Meyer is the acclaimed writer of the Bloody Jack Adventure series, which follows the exploits of an impetuous heroine who has fought her way up from the squalid streets of London to become an adventurer of the highest order. He and his wife operate an art gallery near their home in a small fishing village on the coast of Maine. Visit his website at www.jackyfaber.com
