ISBN:  9781410468468 Edition:  Large print ed. Description:  517 p. (large print) ; 23 cm. Notes:  "Gale Cengage Learning". Summary:  In 1872, the American merchant vessel Mary Celeste was discovered adrift off the coast of Spain. Her cargo was intact and there was no sign of struggle but the crew was gone. While on a voyage to Africa, a rather hard-up and unproven young writer named Arthur Conan Doyle hears of the Mary Celeste and decides to write an outlandish short story about what took place. This story causes quite a sensation back in the United States, particularly between sought-after Philadelphia spiritualist medium Violet Petra and a rational-minded journalist named Phoebe Grant, who is seeking to expose Petra as a fraud. Then there is the family of the Mary Celeste's captain, a family linked to the sea for generations and marked repeatedly by tragedy. Each member of this ensemble holds a critical piece to the puzzle of the Mary Celeste. Genre:  Historical fiction. Sea stories.
