Terrible and I’m horrified that Doyle wrote it.
I read it because of the Marie Celeste connection but I’ll save you the time.
Respectable doctor who spends his free time fighting against slavery goes on Marie Celeste.
Black Man goes on Marie Celeste and kills everyone but the doctor. The doctor is only spared because he has a special artefact from an African tribe. The black man tells the doctor that it is because he “warred against the whole white race”.
Also the black man throws in that he has spent the last twenty years of his life crossing the United States and murdering as many random white people as possible.
Such a horribly racist book and so thinly disguised. Doyle really piles it on in the last few minutes. I now know that Sherlock Holmes would have been in on the cover up after George Floyd.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
