(3) YA Contemporary girl Jill, a champion fencer, time-travels to the Caribbean in the 1700s. She's strong-armed into joining Captain Marjory Cooper's pirate crew and undergoes a challenging but educational apprenticeship. Rich detail about pirate life, along with a colorful lady-pirate captain and some fencing derring-do, give the well-wrought adventure heft (awkwardly framed time-slip aside). Glos.
