Opis

Petite Orphelin Isle, a tiny Caribbean island near Haiti, where the descendants of African slaves, survivors of an ancient shipwreck, have lived not only in harmony, but also in prosperity for over three-hundred years. Although they might not seem prosperous to the "civilized" world, having no electricity, television or wireless phones, and the only vehicle on the island is a 1904 steam tractor, to Donte Manuxet, age thirteen, proficient in mechanical skills as well as seafaring knowledge, there is no place on earth he would rather live; a sentiment shared by his closest friends, Timothy and Thomas Durant, ages thirteen and eight, sons of the island's chief, and Tiya Millay, age thirteen, daughter of the Mambo and experienced in ghostly matters. But when a luxurious yacht limps to their island with engine trouble and Donte and his friends meet Randy Lancaster, also thirteen and heir to his deceased father's fortune, events begin to transpire that result in them all being lost at sea and finding a rusty old cargo steamer apparently abandoned... at least by anyone alive.
