One cold, foggy morning in January, 1921, a five-masted schooner in full sail plowed into Diamond Shoal in the infamous Graveyard of the Atlantic. Known to history as The Ghost Ship, her officers and crew were not on board, the ship's anchors and lifeboats were missing, and the bodies of the ship's crew never washed ashore. The only living thing on board was a six-toed coat. Six agencies investigated the mystery, but it was never solved. Ninety years later, Ann Cavrion travels to Cape Hatteras to get over the loss of her fiancé. She meets the enigmatic, yet charming, Lawrence Curator on the beach. Behind her she hears the cries of villagers, "Shipwreck!" A Surfman runs up and shouts that the missing schooner, her sails set, is aground on the shoal. Ann recognizes the enormous ship from a photograph she'd seen the night before. So begins Ann's journey back to 1921 with the man the Navy sent to investigate the grounding of the great ship.
