Book description
Ardita is a young and rich flapper girl who is spending time at her uncle's yacht.

Besides that, she ends up having an argument with her uncle about her love life. The uncle decides to leave Ardita on the yacht while he is ashore.Soon there comes a change in the situation when a boat filled with seven men approaches the yacht - the men are pirates, and Ardita is more than excited about it!'The Offshore pirate' is F.
