The Captain, an ally of the infamous Jean Lafitte, isn't fond of the American military either and doesn't want to help them in the war, but he is changed by the love of the heroine. After he survives sea attacks and the battleground, they go against her family's plans for her to marry a high government official. This man is playing a traitor's game and becomes a deadly enemy out to ruin their happiness. "The Last Pirate" has plenty of adventure from the High Seas to the 1814 mansions of the New Orleans elite, combining history, intrigue and a love story that keeps the pages turning to a satisfying ending."
