Morley Ashton: A Story of the Sea. Volume 2 (of 3)
Produced by Al Haines
"Morley Ashton: A Story of the Sea. Volume 2" by James Grant is a novel written in the late 19th century. This volume continues the adventurous tale, focusing on themes of love, betrayal, and the trials faced by sailors at sea. The narrative revolves around the central character, Morley Ashton, and features complex relationships, notably with Mariquita Escudero, while also introducing tension among the crew of the ship. The opening of this volume presents a confession from an ominous figure named Don Pedro Zuares Miguel de Barradas, revealing his sinful past and the consequences of his actions, particularly concerning Mariquita, a beautiful girl he deceived. As the story unfolds, it draws the reader into the turbulent lives of the ship's crew, hinting at underlying discontent and brewing conflict among them. The scene is set against the backdrop of the sea, and as tensions rise, the characters' fates intertwine with the secrets and pasts they carry, leading to a promise of further dramatic developments. The interplay of personal ambition, guilt, and the supernatural is a likely theme as the narrative continues. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
