Book Description
Book Three: 1796 Should Jiddy stay, or should she go? When Jonas left Robin Hood’s Bay, he abandoned his vows to Jiddy. The sea engulfed Captain Samuel Ryethorpe, and his death exposed her once more as an outsider. Both young men believed they acted with high morals, but it was the amoral Captain Pinkney who threw Jiddy a lifeline. Now, the defiant seventeen-year-old resolves to find choices and freedom for local girls battered by poverty and confined by an insular community. Jiddy is determined. No man, no government, no place will hold them back. As friends find new beginnings, Jiddy looks across the moors to York, where love beckons. The North Sea entices with childhood dreams of distant places, but smuggling and hustling are all she has known. What’s it to be for our endlessly curious and contradictory Jiddy Vardy? Dramatic and atmospheric…I would recommend to fans of historical fiction with strong female leads. – Praise for High Tide by The Pages of Mrs D Brutal, breathtaking and brilliant! After reading Jiddy’s entire story, I’ve fallen in love with her. Such a legend! – Genevieve Robinson (Beta-reader)
