CAPTAIN PETER CAREY Otherwise known as "Black Peter," this ex-captain of a whaling ship is murdered by getting a harpoon shoved through his chest. Given what we learn about Peter during the story, though, we find that he wasn't an entirely innocent victim. First off, he was a drunk and was an abusive husband and father. We also find out that he murdered an investment banker guy in order to steal his super secret stock tips years ago. Peter's crew wasn't all that moral either, and his former first mate ends up murdering him during a fight. The other notable thing about Peter is that he doesn't live in his nice house; instead he lives in a little shack that he built. The inside of said shack is decorated to look like the inside of a ship's cabin. Clearly, this man missed the sea, and he probably shouldn't have retired to live off all his stolen money.
