The Indigo Ghosts by Alys Clare

Gabriel has been summoned to the ship he used to work on.  His captain tells him the crew is spooked.  They think they are seeing ghosts...

Severn House and Net Galley let me read this book for review (thank you).  It will be published Hune 2nd.

He can feel the odd sensations the sailors are talking about.  So he searches the ship and finds a small room way up at the end of the boat in the storage compartment.  They also find a body...

The body is very old and while they debate what to do with it, it disappears.

Then more bodies show up.  They all have blue hands, which is a mystery.

This historical novel is set at a bad time in history.  The Spanish makes slaves of anyone they find.  They treat the negro slaves better than the white slaves.  It's no wonder they tried to escape.

They are hiding in England now but the Spaniards are still looking for them. Will Gabriel and his friends find them before the Spaniards do?
