Abstract:

Who is the tattooed man? He is only the cook of the tramp freighter Araby, but in an emergency his voice takes on a ring of authority that is attended to by everyone including the captain. Tod Moran suspects that the cook knows more than he is telling about the disappearance of Tod's brother. He does, and what he knows makes a gripping adventure story.
