Summary What would you do if you were taken hostage by pirates? This book recounts the true story of Fanny Loviot, a wealthy French girl kidnapped in the South China Sea. After setting sail from Hong Kong for the California coast in 1855, her boat was overtaken by pirates. Captured and held for ransom, Loviot tried to make the most of her difficult situation. This thrilling personal account includes her dramatic rescue by British authorities. After returning to France, Loviot gained a degree of fame as the lady who escaped from pirates and lived to tell about it.
