In chapter 12, Blackpool Bay, the night riders ravel though the Green Stones, a dangerous and scary passageway before arriving in France. Then, they sailed along the French coast before spending about a week in Cartaret. Jim was bored there, but eventually they got some black market items and headed for Blackpool, England. While they were unloading things, Jim tried to escape, but was caught by Marah. Then, they got chased by the Preventives, a British police force. They were easily winning until Marah's horse's heart gave out and died, so they got off and hid (this goes into chapter 13, In the Valley). After the Preventives left, Marah got another horse and they kept riding. They rode past Jim's house, but Marah threatened to kill Jim if he called out. Then they got chased into the water and hid in a makeshift boat. They were shot at, but survived. The chapter ends here.
The pirates were still kinder, than real pirates, but I thought that this part was well written.
