19. Mai 1845, Greenhithe, England: Sir John Franklin macht sich mit 134 Männern und zwei Schiffen, der 'Terror' und der 'Erebus', auf den Weg ins arktische Eis, um den letzten weißen Fleck der Nordwestpassage zu kartieren. Drei Jahre später verschwinden die Schiffe, ihr Schicksal und das ihrer Crews bleibt mehr als anderthalb Jahrhunderte lang ein Rätsel - bis 2014 vor der Nordküste Kanadas ein wahrhaftiger Schatz gefunden wird: das Wrack der HMS 'Erebus'. Michael Palin - Monty-Python-Star, Weltenbummler und begnadeter Erzähler - entfaltet in seinem lebendigen und atmosphärischen Bestseller die so glanzvolle wie tragische Geschichte der 'Erebus'; von ihrem Stapellauf über zahlreiche Fahrten auf allen Weltmeeren und die legendäre Reise in die Antarktis, die ihr und den vom Forschungsgeist getriebenen Entdeckern Ruhm brachte, bis hin zu der verhängnisvollen Expedition in die Arktis, die in einer Katastrophe endete.
