If you haven't discovered her genius yet, you are in for a rare treat."- Harlan Coban "After torrential summer rains uncover a bizarrely tattooed body on a Lake District hillside, long-discarded old wives' tales take on a chilling new plausibility. For centuries, Lakelanders have whispered that Fletcher Christian staged the massacre on Pitcairn so that he could return home. And there he told his story to an old friend and schoolmate, William Wordsworth, who turned it into a long narrative poem- a poem that remained hidden lest it expose Wordsworth to the gallows for harboring a fugitive."
