A long time ago, a witch burst into flames. A pirate
and a mermaid fell in love. A map was marked with a glowing X. And
a Republic was born.
In the present day, two girls are given a history assignment:
to try and piece together the rise and fall of the famous and corrupt
pirate Republic, which once formed their island home.
As Reggie and Maeve sift fact from fiction, they realise that
everything they've been told about the Republic is wrong. That the
problem with history being told by the victors is that a lot
gets left out. That ancient legend might be uncomfortably
close to home. As their tentative friendship deepens into something
more, they realise that a magical world could be on their very
doorstep – if only they could find the map...
