A Mystery at Sea

Well... most of this story took place at sea. I downloadedthe free kindle versionof this short story not really knowing what to expect. Turns out, it is a bit of a mystery.

The opening pages indicate there should be illustrations - but they are missing. The end of this ebook has a nice summary of the author's life and famous relatives.

People who are knowledgeable of sailing terminology will enjoy this story very much. About 75% of it takes place on a ship. The lingo flies and is woven into this tale since it is being narrated by a First Mate. I didn't have any trouble following the story even though I know nothing about sailing.

The plot can be summed up by this great line: "Some people don't seem to be so dead, when they are dead..."

A great short read especially if you spend a lot of time on the water.
