After witnessing the brutal death of his father, at the tender age
of seven, by a band of smuggling cutthroats, Nathaniel Brookes
swears to find his father's killers. As a man he initially follows
a medical career, but he turns his back on his comfortable life and
dons the garb of a Riding Officer to fulfil his vow. Hated in all
communities, ostracised and friendless, he faces more than just his
father's enemies. Little did Nathaniel expect, when taking up his
duties to ride the dramatic Welsh coastline, that he would meet and
fall in love with local beauty, Jenny Banwen, horrifically scarred
by a sadistic young member of the gentry. But Nathaniel is
betrothed to his first cousin, Hannah. A betrothal of duty. With
his loyalties torn, Nathaniel knows his search for the brutes who
savagely took his father's life, his sad engagement and his family
obligations will be tested. They reveal that Nathaniel has a double
duty, to his oath, and to his heart's future. That is if he can
stay alive long enough to have a future. Publisher Comments:
Against The Tide is an all action adventure with a fine and
beautiful love story woven through the narrative. Elizabeth Revill
is a wonderful storyteller, bringing history to life through the
most evocative characters. She is definitely inheriting the mantle
of writers like Catherine Cookson. The Welsh coast has never seen
such brave heroes and terrible villians.
