Summary:The story is based upon real facts but with the added writers license to indulge. Romance, and intrigue are part of the story. The development of the harbour in a remote Cornish village, the leading figure of this area was a Solicitor and a Banker, the Cornish family of long standing with connections to the throne. He has an affair with a male clerk, although married, not very satisfactory and his wife eventually meets an officer in the Royal Navy, whose frigate regularly berths at Georgetown, they immediately strike up a relationship.
Poverty in a Fishing Village, a hamlet of nine houses and the wonderful backdrop of the cornish scenery provides the setting for this gentle story.
