Daughter of Hades first depicts the story of Dinny and Jimmie, twin brother and sister who have grown up as enslaved people on a plantation in Barbados. When Dinny’s life faces more threats as the master’s infatuation with her grows, the siblings make their way onto a pirate ship. Though safety will not come yet for the two siblings, it seems that love is in the cards for at least one of them, as Dinny falls in love with a Chinese sailor named Lei.
The
storyline alternates with another set of siblings: two brothers named Ivan and
Pax as they desperately try to make their way to Jamaica. The two storylines
eventually clash and the two sets of siblings are faced with a Rolodex of
suspenseful events that bring to light pain, romance, and survival, in any
condition.
The book gets its inspiration from the long
and harrowing history of slavery in the Caribbean. It is one of the most
exciting historical fiction novels with a story that is still relevant today.
But Daughters of Hades is much more than a lesson of Caribbean history and the effects slavery has on these siblings. At its core, it is a fight for survival and revenge captured in its more pure state, and a historical romance that shows people can find love even in the strangest of places, or the strangest of situations.
“An engaging, swashbuckling tale of love and revenge during the age
of piracy.” - Kirkus Reviews
“Little fills us in on the important Caribbean history and how
the rules of a terrible trade system changed from one island to another.
Envisioning the beautiful settings of Jamaica and Barbados and recognizing
their histories illuminates a truth that readers will really benefit from
knowing.” - Jaylynn Korrell (Independent Book Review)
