Braddon is a classic fictional work likely written in the late 19th century. The novel unfolds a tale of intrigue, exploring themes of love, betrayal, and the darker elements of human nature through the eyes of its protagonist, Captain Valentine Jernam, as he navigates the perilous waters of fate and deception. The opening of "Run to Earth" introduces us to Captain Valentine Jernam and his loyal clerk, Joyce Harker, as they share a drink in a back room of a public-house in Shadwell. Jernam reflects on his past and his affection for the sea, while Harker expresses concerns about their surroundings, hinting at danger.
