The Moving Picture Girls at Sea (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781387692866)

The DeVeres head out to sea with the Comet Film company in order to film a new drama about a shipwreck. Old Jack Jepson, a sailor hired for the film, confides in how he was once unjustly accused of inciting a mutiny on a ship and was sentenced to prison by the British authorities. Jack escaped and has lived on the run for many years. During the voyage, Jack worries that the British may discover his whereabouts and arrest him. Alice is intrigued by Jack's story, especially when she observes that Jack appears to know Captain Brisco and one of the other sailors, Hen Lacomb. Later, Jack appears to fall overboard while Brisco and Lacomb are standing near him. When Alice speaks to Jack about the incident, Jack reveals that Lacomb pushed him overboard. Jack refuses to elaborate any further, leaving a mystery for Alice to uncover.
