Captain Caius Hocken brings the barquentine Hannah Hoo home to Troy for the last time and comes ashore in a tall silk hat to settle down. His old friend Captain Hunken retires there too, and the two bachelors find that a sleepy Cornish harbour town has more to offer in the way of gossip, rivalry, foundlings and courtship than either of them bargained for.

A genial comedy of Cornish seafaring folk by ‘Q’, set in the town he loved. Download the free EPUB.
