On 5 July 1884, the yacht Mignonette set sail from Southampton bound for Sydney. Halfway through their projected one hundred & twenty day voyage, Captain Tom Dudley & his crew of three men were beset by a monstrous storm off the coast of Africa. After four days of battling towering waves & hurricane gales, their yacht was finally crushed by a ferocious forty foot wave.

The survivors were cast adrift a thousand miles from the nearest landfall in an open thirteen foot dinghy without provisions, water or shelter from the scorching sun. When, after twenty four days, they were finally rescued by a passing yacht, the Moctezuma, only three men were left & they were in an appalling condition. The ordeal that they endured & the trial which followed their eventual return to England held the whole nation
- from the lowliest ship's deckhand to Queen Victoria herself
- spellbound during the following winter.

This is the true story of the voyage & the subsequent court case which outlawed for ever a practice followed since men first put to the ocean in boats: the custom of the sea.

Twistleton is a village untouched by time, taking its rhythms from the countryside around. Daisy, Jean, Freddie & their friends Aurelia & Laura are devoted to the place, so that when war breaks out Twistleton becomes the embodiment of everything for which they are fighting.
