Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
THE WRONG KIND OF HERO. "Girls can't be in the navy! Girls take care of babies! You're so stupid, you don't know anything!" London. 1783. Wendy Darling is an orphan, living in an overcrowded almshouse, ridiculed for believing in a future she can never have. More than anything in the world, she wants to be the captain of a ship. But that's impossible. Isn't it? By 1789, she's sixteen. Old enough to be sold into service as a dressmaker or a servant. When she learns the Home Office is accepting a handful of women into its ranks, she jumps at the chance, joining the fight against the most formidable threat England has ever faced. Magic. But the secret service isn't exactly what she had hoped. Accompanied by a reimagined cast of the original Peter Pan, Wendy soon discovers that her dreams are as far away as ever, that choosing sides isn't as simple as she thought, and that the only man who isn't blinded by her gender... might be her nation's greatest enemy.
"When the world doesn't want you to be who you are, you must become more yourself than you knew you could be." --Back of dust jacket.
