Things aren't going so well for fifteen-year-old Dylan Maples. He's sick
of his own reflection, his parental units are driving him nuts, and,
worst of all, he's trying to come to terms with the unexpected death of
one of his best friends. Now, to top things off, he's been roped into a
family trip to stay with family friends in New Brunswick. After just a
few hours in Bathurst, Dylan worries this will turn out to be the most
boring vacation ever, but when he meets a local girl, Antonine, and the
two of them witness what looks like a burning ship on the water, he
begins to think that New Brunswick might be more interesting than he
thought. As Dylan and Antonine begin to research the famous ghost ship
of the Bay de Chaleur, they raise more questions than they answer. Does
Antonine's father hold a clue to the mystery? What's the deal with the
local right-wing politician who is on everybody's minds these days? And
what really happened on the water all those years ago?
