[...] [B]eyond and around from sky-line to sky-line the blue Pacific lay desolate beneath the day. 'They are dead.' He was gazing at the forms on the dinghy, the form of a girl with a child embraced in one arm, and a youth. Clasping one another, they seemed asleep.\" Aboard the whaling vessel \u003ci\u003eRaratonga\u003c\/i\u003e, Arthur Lestrange discovers his long-lost son and niece after years of searching. As they pull up alongside their fishing boat, however, he realizes they are too late-the shipwrecked youths have succumbed to the elements. Between them, a child lies asleep, offering some hope to the devastated father and crew. Visited by Dick and Emmeline in a dream, Arthur endeavors to return to Palm Tree, the island where they raised their son in peace. There, the boy is brought up by his grandfather and a crewmember named Jim Kearney, who keep him safe and teach him the ways of survival. When a beautiful Kanaka native named Karolin arrives from a nearby atoll, he discovers something no one could have prepared him for: love. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince our inception in 2020, Mint Editions has kept sustainability and innovation at the forefront of our mission.
