A New York Public Library Best Book of 2025
Our Flag Means Death
meets
The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue
in this YA historical fantasy about three queer teens and their found family of queer pirates facing down a secret magical society.
Remy
wants to rescue her father.
Cas
wants to finally be himself.
Finn
wants to get the girl.
Nineteenth-century Massachusetts high society isn't kind to anyone who doesn't conform to its norms. For years, Remy, Cas, and Finn have done their best to blend in. But when they find themselves targeted by an evil magical society, they'll have to find the strength to stand out.
When a prophetic vision sets the three of them on a collision course, they embark on a journey that will take them aboard a ship of queer smugglers, into the path of a demon, and inside a sinister stronghold of dark magic. Together, they'll confront hidden secrets and face deadly odds-and, hopefully, find out who they truly are.
