The Ship That Burned Twice

A fast privateer, a British pursuit, and an explosion before the boarding boats can reach her. Then the Young Teazer begins to burn again in the stories told around Mahone Bay. Mara and Julian follow the wartime disaster, the wreckage brought ashore, and the eerie legend that still changes how the water feels after dark.
