Keegan is back at sea in the days of tall ships and high adventure. It's an age when sail and steam are at war. The thousand-year tradition of the tall ships is coming to an end. Men like Bill Ryan and Jim Hale are caught in the jaws of change, in a world where survival depends on courage, strength and a willingness to take terrible risks. 1862, on the English east coast: the railway has destroyed the coastal shipping trade; small lines like Eastcoast Packet are dying. Jim is about to inherit Eastcoast and the schooner Spindrift ...if he and Captain Bill Ryan can survive the explosive North Sea storms, and the schemes of the shipwrecker, Nathan Kerr. Always dangerous, Kerr has a score to settle with both Jim and Ryan.
