Summary
In exchange for Stede’s freedom, Ed offers himself up to the British and is sentenced to 5 years in prison. Thanks to a very intrepid mail delivery seagull, they’re able to exchange a series of increasingly stupid, silly, smutty, and romantic letters during their time apart.

Summary
It hits him then, like a wave breaking on sand, loud as thunder when it crashes, then trickling away into little rivulets flowing back home, murmuring one word over and over and over.
Ed.
The problem is, Stede doesn’t recall ever having met anyone named Ed.
Stede Bonnet goes home to his family, and within days of his return, starts a brawl with Mary’s new paramour. An unlucky twist of fate leaves him with a head injury that wipes the last months of his life clean. Unable to remember leaving his family in the first place, exiled by his wife for sins he doesn’t remember committing, Stede has absolutely nothing to his name. He takes to the sea, following his lifelong dream and a tiny scrap of red silk that washes up on the beach, but he doesn’t make it far before he’s captured by the dread pirate Blackbeard himself, who seems to hold the missing piece of the puzzle that Stede’s life has become.
