Adrift at sea with depleted rations, Tom Tin and his crew-all escaped teenage convicts-are relieved to board an abandoned ship. Though wary, the boys take two marooned men, Mr. Beezley and Mr. Moyle, on board. Beezley and Moyle quickly commandeer the ship, sail to the Caribbean, and try to sell Tom and his mates as slaves. But a deadly confrontation allows Tom and his surviving companions to flee for England. Home provides no comforts, though, as Tom finds himself beset by fearsome enemies and a terrible curse. Library edition with trade jacket added.
