Four years after the HMAS Young Pioneer met its disastrous conclusion in Sydney Harbour, the ship has been rebuilt and ready to sail in the International Regatta bound from Australia to New Zealand, but upon arriving in Auckland, disaster strikes again. Colin, the only survivor to the destruction of the seven tall ships, retells the tale of how they came to their perilous end. However, while we had come to think of him as the protagonist actively trying to save the ships' crews, it's not long into his re-telling that he admits to executing one of his own, and for what purpose? As Detective Harper listens in, he concludes Colin is not a victim, but a perpetrator, begging the question: How could any of them have survived when the hero was more dangerous than the enemy?
