Another book I just picked up at the library as it seemed interesting.
It takes place during the whaling days of New England. Ren, an orphan raised at St. Anthony’s, is ‘adopted’ by Ben who claims to be his brother. As Ren travels with Ben and Ben’s friend Tom through New England making their way selling ‘potions’ and robbing graves he learns that while Ben is not who he says he is that he does know the secret to Ren’s past and the reason behind his lost hand.
An enjoyable read even if the plot is a litte far fetched…
