The third and climactic volume of The Bounty Trilogy, Pitcairn's Island, chronicles the fate of Christian, the mutineers, and a handful of Tahitians who find refuge on the loneliest island in the Pacific. There they live out a tragedy of drunkenness, betrayal, murder, and vengeance, leaving only one Englishman alive to restore the peace, which he does by returning to the precepts in the Bounty's Bible.
