However, his plans are disrupted when he discovers that his ship is being used for illegal activities.As the plot unfolds, Dick finds himself embroiled in a dangerous game of cat and mouse with the ship's captain, who will stop at nothing to protect his illicit cargo. Along the way, he also encounters a cast of colorful characters, including a beautiful woman named Ada, a mysterious doctor, and a ruthless pirate.The novel is filled with action, suspense, and intrigue, as Dick navigates the treacherous waters of the South Seas and tries to outsmart his enemies. Hornung's vivid descriptions of the exotic locales and seafaring life add to the book's appeal, making it a must-read for fans of adventure fiction. Dead Men Tell No Tales is a timeless classic that continues to captivate readers to this day.""You mean when Ready asked him if we were out of our course? I must say I thought it was a silly question to put. It was the same the other evening about the cargo. If the skipper says we're in ballast why not believe him? Why repeat steerage gossip, about mysterious cargoes, at the cuddy table? Captains are always touchy about that sort of thing. I wasn't surprised at his letting out.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
