Miles Wallingford
Authorship not stated
You are Miles Wallingford, a ship's captain back from pulling Andrew Drewett out of the river alive. Your ailing sister Grace and Lucy Hardinge share the crowded cabin below, and you and Lucy agree that kindness in a crisis proves nothing about affection. When a passing sloop brings Lucy's brother Rupert alongside and he never asks after Grace, the silence hurts her worse than the accident did. As the ship turns downriver, Lucy asks whether you will chase Rupert, find a doctor, or simply guard the rest Grace has found.
