A tiny speck imprisoned in a world of white... This is an exciting
adventure novel told through the eyes of eleven-year-old ships boy
Jeremy. It is both history and fiction. The merchant ship Henrietta
Maria has been trapped in the ice of Hudson Strait for two months.
It is August 6, 1631, when she finally breaks free to search for a
northwest passage. The crew knows that it must leave Hudson Bay by
early October to avoid being caught in the ice for the winter. The
ship is leaking badly and the crew is ravaged by scurvy. Finally,
Captain James announces that they cannot make it back to Hudson
Strait before freeze-up. With half the crew suffering from scurvy
and even lacking boots, will anyone survive in this cold and
desolate place?
