Palmyra Sees a Strange Hand on the Rainbow Yacht
Miss Palmyra, aboard the Rainbow off California, awakens to a prismatic hand with a black lace mitten intrusion through a hull port. The eerie moment fuels suspense as she wonders if a real intruder or a dream, while three men in her orbit—Van Buren Rutger, John Thurston, and a stowaway—revolve around a dangerous romance and a South Seas quest.
