From the back:

"Not every 13 year-old girl is accused of murder, brought to trial and found guilty.... Charlotte Doyle is just such a girl and she swears to tell the truth in all its detail. It happened during the summer of 1832 aboard a ship called the Seahawk. The only passenger on the long Atlantic Ocean crossing, Charlotte found herself caught between the madenss of a ruthless captain and the rage of a mutinous crew. This is her terrifying account of that fateful voyage."

A fellow teacher turned me on to Charlotte Doyle when I was teaching HS English. This one proved to be very popular, even with older HS students.
