ABOUT THE BOOK

A test of nerve in the Gulf of Siam

A young man sets out on his first voyage as captain, aboard a vessel and among a crew that are equally unfamiliar to him. A mysterious night-swimmer climbs aboard, and, in keeping the presence of this fugitive a secret, the skipper risks both his captaincy and the safety of his ship. Many of Conrad's stories of suspense and adventure, including the collection 'Twixt Land and Sea, from which The Secret Sharer is taken, are published in Penguin.
