English Summary/英文概要: After discovering a timeworn journal from 1768, penned during the first of Captain James Cook’s three epic voyages through the Pacific islands, rare book dealer Michael Bevan hopes he may be able to cash in and keep his used bookstore afloat for one more year. But when a pair of London dealers turn up a journal from Cook’s second voyage, Michael is intrigued. Could a third diary exist? As the body count mounts, Michael wonders: what explosive secrets might an elusive third diary contain? As he’ll find out, the answer rests in the hands of a man daring enough to rewrite history--and desperate enough to kill.
