About This Book

In 1832, thirteen-year-old Charlotte Doyle boards a ship bound from England to America expecting a safe, proper voyage — and finds herself in the middle of a mutiny, accused of murder, and forced to choose sides. Avi's Newbery Honor thriller is a brilliant upending of Victorian propriety, a story about class, loyalty, and a girl who discovers she is not who she thought she was.
