Half of Longs Bay has seen her: a pale ship with no lights, sliding past the point on foggy mornings — and gone before anyone can point. A ghost ship, Captain Roy says. Seven-year-old Nell writes down only what folks actually saw, and follows three plain clues — a church bell that rings at six, wet boot prints on an empty pier, and a ferry schedule nailed up by a shed door — all the way to a captain who has been waving at the point for forty years, waiting for somebody to wave back. A gentle mystery about looking closer, asking one more question, and the friendly answer hiding inside a spooky one. Warm watercolor illustrations on every page. Ages 4–8.
