About this listen

A short story from the British Library Tales of the Weird collection From the Depths.

There is a dark mood aboard Serapis, driven by its distracted captain. It was agreed that this ship would not be returning from its voyage, the insurance money paying for a new ship. But the captain loses more than he bargained for, and it is years until he is at peace when he is unexpectedly reunited with the wreck on the coast of Chile.

This feels much longer than it is, there is so much content. it is very good if you only have a short time to listen, but wish to feel satisfied at the end.

Very good short story
