Maritime Mysteries FrankiVerse Cafe Backrooms (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798233804748)

The ocean does not care whether you believe in it.

Maritime Mysteries FrankiVerse Cafe Backrooms is the third volume in the Backrooms series - twelve chapters, twelve bodies of water, twelve documented maritime mysteries examined through the verified record, the regional lore layer, and the Coffee & Cryptids transcript, in which Franki and Franny Lynn sit down with the entities that have been in these waters since before the waters had human names and ask them what they know.

Flight 19 and the last transmission. The Mary Celeste and the table that was set. The Ourang Medan and all hands dead with no explanation. The Flannan Isles keepers who vanished between one log entry and the next. The SS Waratah and two hundred and eleven people who left no wreckage. The Flying Dutchman, still rounding the Cape. The Baltic Sea Anomaly. What Gitche Gumee keeps. The Devil's Sea. The twelve vile vortices. The Bimini Road, built to go underwater. The SS Valencia and the boats that came back with skeletal figures at the oars.

Also at the table: Captain Connie, formerly earthly matriarch, currently Quantum Royal Space Pirate, possessor of a legitimately acquired wormhole deed and a hat with small moons in orbit. She arrived before the series did. Morrish the selkie barista is at the table for the full volume and returns to the counter at the end changed by old water, permanently and correctly. The BooBerry K Muffins are on every menu. By the outro, the record knows why.

The entities did not take the ships. The ocean is not against you. The held are held with care.

Let's sail.
