2Two young boys, Adam and Gord, and their curious and charming little sister, Molly, make it their mission to solve the mystery of the phantom ship while visiting their aunt and uncle's farm over Easter break. The children overhear conversations around the mystery and try to solve why it is that everyone is so afraid of the phantom ship. What role does old Ben, the one-eyed crow, play? And how will the mysterious black cat help find clues for the children's search of the phantom ship? Will the children ever uncover the mystery that remains about the phantom ship, and will they witness the terrifying and unnerving encounter that has left so many locals haunted? Why does the burning phantom ship rise from the depths of Chaleur Bay? Why do onlookers see fireballs flying through the sky from the burning three-masted ship and hear eerie screams echoing across the bay? Why can no one find the remains of the burning pirate ship? These are all questions that the three children in the story try to solve. The phantom ship is very real. Thousands of people who live on both sides of Chaleur Bay (lying between Quebec's Gaspe Coast and Bathurst, New Brunswick) have witnessed this strange phenomenon and have been haunted by it ever since.
