About this ebook
Excerpt: "The Nut lay on the scorching beach facing the terrible sea in which the hungry sharks, the warders of his prison, were disporting. The convict was like a weary animal at rest. In truth, he had availed himself of the "relaxation" at ten o'clock to seek out a little fresh air and seclusion between two precipitous crags which cut him off from the rest of the convict settlement.

But how could he help thinking of what he had seen, of what he had been compelled to see, that morning?" This edition has been fully restored with modern typesetting, custom cover design.
