An enthralling novel of two stories that speak to each other across time and thousands of miles
Based on the real events of Sir John Franklin’s expedition to find the Northwest Passage
In 1845, two ships, HMS Erebus and Terror, are Arctic-bound. Commander John Franklin and second-in-command Francis Crozier hope to return within two years, but nobody really knows how long they will be gone. As time passes with no word from the expedition, the world fears the worst ...
In 1849, in Derry, little Weesy Coppin has died of a fever, but her spirit appears to her sister Ann and her brother William.
The two stories collide as Franklin’s crew struggle to survive, and Weesy seems bent on haunting her family.
Finally, one ghostly night Ann asks her sister the question on everyone’s lips: Where are the missing ships?
