Acclaimed author of Sleeping with the Enemy (movie starred Julia Roberts)
England is fighting alone against Napoleon on land and see.
Three men want to marry Sophia Wentworth. One takes her to war with him: she is a lone woman with 200 men on a fighting ship. The second man loves her so much that he will give her all he owns. The third man loves her too much to tell her-ever-the secret of her past.
The reader enters Britain in 1798 to live a dangerous life on land, or face the terrors of a wooden ship alone on the sea.
Sophia's story, told in the familiar language of today, opens a door to a world we can hardly imagine.
