The Cabin Boy

The year is 1789, and Henry Kent is captain of a ship bound to the High Arctic on an explorative expedition. On the way he meets John Manning, a charming boy of twelve with dreams of adventure. The secret he discovers about John is only the beginning of a long, harrowing chain of events that lead him on the path to horror, desperation, sadness, but ultimately, love.

Irishrose, you have once again captured my attention with the very first chapter. John's a bit girly for a 12 year old. Is John actually a girl in disguise?
I fangirled so much when i saw the phrase "what the devil is going on here?!" Are you a starkid?
This is really charming.  I like John, and historical fiction - so great start.  Hope you intend to continue it further!
