It is 1793 and in France, the founding of the Republic is underway. In Cornwall the Loveday shipyard is still struggling and money is tight. Adam finds he must leave his bride to earn his living at sea and becomes involved in helping emigres escape from revolutionary France. Meanwhile, Adam's brother, St John, is in trouble. The riches from his smuggling are being lost by his wife, an unlucky gambler, while his disreputable associates have implicated him in murder. The scandal adds to the growing dissent and rivalry that troubles the Loveday household - will the family see beyond their differences and unite once more?
