About this book
An inventor in need of rest receives an offer that could complicate his closest friendship. Gerald Fenton offers to pay for a voyage to Canton, where Grenville is to meet Elaine and escort her home. She is Fenton's intended bride, and what sounds like a simple favor quickly becomes an argument about the possibility of falling in love. Grenville's blunt warnings and Fenton's confidence make loyalty a live question from the start.
Philip Verrill Mighels places this romantic premise within a story of shipwreck survival. Trapped on a rock shelf below a cliff, Grenville must guide Elaine as she moves and secures a heavy ladder. Falling tides, currents and sharks make each decision matter. The practical work of finding a way to safety gives readers of castaway fiction a close view of courage, cooperation and trust under pressure.
