Summary

Trapped in Terror Bay : Solving the Mystery of the Lost Franklin Expedition


In 1845, Sir John Franklin's expedition set sail for the Arctic from England in search of the Northwest Passage from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Not only did they not succeed, his two ships - HMS Erebus and HMS Terror - and their entire party of 129 men vanished, their fate a mystery that remained unsolved for decades. In 10 suspenseful episodes, the thrilling tale of that doomed polar mission is told from the points of view of the commander of the Terror and of those back home and the search parties who attempted to find them. It's a thorough and thoroughly captivating read about an intriguing story from the past.
