Udgivelsesdato: Jan 30, 2015

A desert in California is said to hold something truly astonishing. According to the myth, somewhere in the Mojave Desert is a ship wreck with a precious cargo. In 1870 Charley Clusker, a Mexican War veteran, seasoned traveller and California Gold Rush prospector, would risk everything to find the legendary Lost Ship of the Mojave Desert. His search would cross one of the harshest environments on earth. But only around 10 miles from the ship's reported location Charley found himself in mortal danger. Despite narrowly escaping with his life Charley was determined to find the ship and set out into the desert once again. This time he ran out of food and water. After days in the desert with nothing to drink he was close to death. Just as he was about to turn back a second time something on the horizon caught his eye - a mighty Spanish galleon. Although he was desperate to get the ship Charley had no choice but to return to town. When he got there news of his adventurers quickly spread. Realising his readers were gripped by Charley's story the editor of the local newspaper decided to join Charley when he returned to the ship. Together they plunged into the desert. Although this time mysteriously Charley struggled to find the ship he'd seen just weeks before. So, if Charley really had seen the ship, why couldn't he find it again? Was Charley really searching for the lost ship? Or was he hunting for something else?
