Table of contents

The slightly different version of the “Flying Dutchman” is about a seafarer in love, Frank, who has been suspected for seven years of killing Santa, Edouard Nordmann's stepdaughter.

Nordmann proposed a deal to Frank for which he had to kill Santa, with whom he was deeply in love. As expected, he does his job and disappears with his ship.

But in reality he had never killed Santa, just pretended to accept the deal and just took his lover with him.

After seven years, Frank returns to the Mediterranean island with Santa and then does the "rest". To protect Santa he takes her undercover to a seedy brothel called the Blue Villa.
