If the angels have gone full red lightsaber evil, it might not only be my territory in danger, but the whole of reality itself...

Publisher's Summary
An orphan boy "borrows" a boat in Amalfi. What could possibly go wrong…?
The year before revolution breaks out in France, Ettore sees an opportunity to add coins to the strong boxes he keeps hidden near his hammock in the brothel where he’d lived since birth. But will he cheat fate in an open boat on the Tyrrhenian Sea the way he fleeces the tourists and pilgrims he guides in his native Amalfi?
Would the hard lessons he’d learned in the streets of Amalfi help him in his time of need? Or would the stormy seas and Algerian corsairs, who snatched him for sale on the slave market teach him another lesson? While fighting to survive, young Ettore confronts his origins, beliefs, and his own shortcomings when a sacrifice is required to aid the friends he makes along the way.
A Captive in Algiers, a prequel to the Muhammad Amalfi Mystery Series, is about identity, fidelity, struggle, friendship, and more. If you like fast-paced historical fiction set in unusual places, then you will definitely love this book by author AJ Lewis.
