This novel follows Hugh Tregarthen, a young man who serves as the coxswain of a lifeboat named the "Janet". The story delves into themes of duty and bravery as Hugh grapples with the responsibilities tied to his position amidst looming peril at sea. At the start of the story, readers are introduced to a dark and stormy day on the coast, where Hugh observes ominous weather conditions that seem foreboding. He reflects on his father's tragic death at sea and his recent responsibilities with the lifeboat, which was gifted to the town in honor of his father's memory. As the tension builds, we learn of a ship in distress—the Danish barque "Anine"—and the perils of its decision to anchor in dangerous waters. With a heavy heart, Hugh prepares for what he believes will be a difficult night as the storm approaches, and the distinct possibility of launching the lifeboat for a rescue looms ever closer. The opening chapters set a suspenseful and dramatic tone, promising adventure and insight into the maritime trials faced by those who risk their lives to save others.
