1813, Near London, England...

A New Life…

Awestruck by the sound of church bells already ringing in his ears, Lt. Harold Harper can't help but count down the days until his wedding to Lady Annabelle Bamber. Thrilled with the prospect of a life on land beside his long time love, Harold looks forward to one last sail... a celebratory mark for the flagship HMS Swift Sunrise.

An Imperfect Beginning…

From the moment Lady Annabelle set eyes on Willcock, the Captain of the HMS Swift Sunrise, she knew something was amiss. Illogical and prone to extreme punishments were his crew was concerned, Annabelle quickly realizes there is only one explanation. He has gone mad.

A Death That Threatens It All...

But when a fatal accident introduces the Captain into an untimely fate and a shocking truth rises from the deathbed, Harold discovers that what happened was no accident. And he will meet the gallows for the murder in no more than a day. With time running against him and nowhere to run, Harold is forced to face the fact that if he cannot escape the noose, the church booked for the wedding will soon host his funeral.

Can the church bells still ring for Harold and Annabelle?

Or will their beautifully planned life turn out to be nothing but a shattered dream?
