Based on the legend of the "Flying Dutchman" the cursed ship that failed to make it around Cape Horn where the two oceans meet. A boy and his dog are saved and sent on an "eternal journey" in search of those in need.

The beginning is excellent! The trip from Denmark, meeting the dog who is also an orphan- you'll love
these main characters. But unfortunately I couldn't make it through this book, I think the kids will like it but it got too long for me and all the excitement from the beginning dies. It actually reminds me of how I felt with Redwall books - great for the kids - I'll pass.
