Ballantyne invites us on an unforgettable adventure through the vast and dangerous Pacific. On a seemingly peaceful morning, a sleek black schooner with a wicked appearance drifts aimlessly on the calm sea. But its crew of rugged, sun-burned men, led by the jovial and grotesque Gascoyne, are not on a pleasure-seeking mission. Instead, they are embarking on a treacherous journey to trade sandalwood, risking their lives among the hostile native tribe and hidden coral reefs.
