Dangerous Waters: The Wreck of the Nottingham Galley is a suspenseful historically based fiction novel relating the events that led to the notorious Wreck of the privateer ship the Nottingham Galley off of Boon Island in Maine in the early 1700s. The tale features the dashing Captain, an enticing love interest, espionage, colorful English folk, and the wreck and the survival of the crew. The story tells of the quiet desperation of Deane who intelligently attempts to rescue his career and reputation after the wreck as well as his employment as a spy in the Russian Navy. The novel is supported by appendices including a lengthy bibliography of historical research, Jasper Deane's narrative of the wreck from 1711, and Christopher Langman's contradictory account of the voyage from 1711 in which he blames Deane for intentionally sinking the ship.
