The ageing retired Admiral Hook calls his friend, the Bishop John Charles, to visit him. He claims to be haunted by the vision of a mysterious island on the horizon. But what can it all mean?

This is an audio presentation (with music and sound effects) of "The Double Admiral" by John Metcalfe (1925).

Another classic "strange" tale by Metcalfe will be coming later this week!
