This particular issued is carried around by Shades, who likes it because it contains pictures, and since he can't read well. He never looks at it when strangers are around because he doesn't want it to be stolen.
==Plot summary==
Brindle Bill Wecker gets marooned on an island off the coast of Geldenmark because of a mutiny by his first mate, Kelly Casper, who turns out to be a prior Commodore of the Letanian fleet. Casper convinces the crew that Brindle Bill has arranged to make off with their shares of the next job, and recommends that in lieu of keelhauling, Wecker be left on the uninhabited islet. Wecker languishes on the island for several weeks, subsisting off of fish and fruit, until he is rescued by a crew member, Tash, who had deserted when the ship (the Rogysis) landed in Tosul on the way to Sherrab. Wecker and Tash catch up with Casper and the rest of the crew, which is when Tash and the rest of the crew finds out Casper had never betrayed Wecker at all. The mutiny had been orchestrated as a way of faking the pirate's death to avoid a Scurnish assassin named The Fang until Casper could misdirect him to another island, where the bones of the last assassin would be waiting disguised as Wecker's.
