Více o knize
Set in Tahiti's port city of Papeete, the story revolves around three desperate characters: Huish, a duplicitous Cockney; Herrick, a struggling businessman; and Davis, a bitter sea captain. After a schooner arrives with a deceased crew due to smallpox, Davis is hired to command the vessel. He devises a scheme with Huish to steal the ship and its cargo, leaving the inexperienced Herrick to manage the chaotic voyage. As the two indulge in the cargo, Herrick grapples with his moral dilemmas and the harsh reality of their desperate situation.
