Publisher's summary

In My Bonny Light Horseman, the infamous pirate, riverboat seductress, master of disguise, and street-urchin-turned-sailor Jacky Faber has been captured by the French and beheaded in full view of her friends and crew. Inconceivable?

Yes! The truth is she's secretly forced to pose as an American dancer behind enemy lines in Paris, where she entices a French general into revealing military secrets - all to save her dear friends. Then, in intrepid Jack Faber style, she dons male clothing and worms her way into a post as a galloper with the French army, ultimately leading a team of men to fight alongside the great Napoleon.

In this sixth installment of the "Bloody Jack" series, love and war collide as the irrepressible Jacky Faber sets off on a daring adventure she vowed she'd never take!

Set sail again and again with Bloody Jack.

Fantastic & so much fun. Highly Recommend

This is such a fun & wonderful series.
Just can’t recommend it enough! And the narration is FANTASTIC.
I am very sad that both the wonderful author L.A. Meyer & & the amazing narrator,, have both left this world much too soon, KK at the young age of 48. Just so sad that no more books with be written or narrated by these two very talented people. Hope you both know wherever you are now, that your wonderful works continue to bring joy to more & more people.

Stunning & Engaging

I don't think I've enjoyed a story or reader yet that is as engaging and "In the Momemt" as L.A. Meyer's Jack series read by Katherine Kellgren. Once again I feel like I am there, beside Jack the whole way, rather than reading what will surely become another account of her adventurers.

I love this book and this narrator!

Katherine's accents are just amazing. Obviously all the bloody Jack story lines stretch credulity a bit but, they are all so fun and interesting that you are willing to overlook the unbelievable. I love Meyers use of real historical events and people in his stories.

9 Lives prevail again.

It took me a little while to start this book, while I love the series, the last book was not my favorite. Thankfully this book is better and I’m in love with Jacky again. She has some of the cleverest ways of getting out of trouble. It is just fun to watch. I look forward to the next book. Narrator is awesome as usual, I just learned she died which saddens me because she is so colorful and lively.

the emotion

both the performance and writing was powerful and hurtful. It brought joy and sadness to hear the story of war spycraft.

One of the best so far

If each book in this series has been a home run, then this one is a grand slam. Katherine Kellgren does an amazing job as usual, and the author tells an excellent tale in the journey of Jacky Faber.

One of my favorite things about this series is that L.A. Meyer keeps the characters true to themselves. I'm never left thinking "Jacky wouldn't do that..."
