The grave tattoo

Wordsworth scholar Jane Gresham, having grown up hearing stories that mutineer Fletcher Christian returned from exile on Pitcairn Island to live out his life in England, is inspired when a two-hundred-year-old corpse bearing South Pacific tattoos washes out of a hillside in the Lake District, to hunt for a rumored manuscript Wordsworth wrote about Christian's adventures, not realizing there are others who want the lost poem for personal gain and are willing to kill to get it.
