How far would you go to reclaim your life and defy the expectations of a world determined to keep you in the shadows?

Corners of the Sea is a gripping tale inspired by the true story of "Bill," a seaman who perished in the tragic sinking of the SS Atlantic, only to have their true identity revealed posthumously as Thea Brawley Shaw. Set against the tumultuous backdrop of post-Civil War America, this novel follows Thea, a woman of privilege from Boston, who, disillusioned by her deceitful husband, Union Captain Cyril Shaw, embarks on a daring escape after uncovering his sinister plot to steal her inheritance. Disguised as a male seaman, Thea boards a freighter bound for Liverpool, navigating perilous seas and forming unlikely alliances, all while being pursued by her vengeful husband. As Thea's journey leads her to the doomed SS Atlantic, her courage and selflessness shine through in a final act of heroism. Believed to have sacrificed herself to save others, Thea's true identity as a woman is revealed in the aftermath of the disaster. Surviving against all odds, she finds love with Raymond Field, a distinguished attorney she met aboard the ship, and together they rebuild their lives in New York, adopting the young boy Thea had saved during the tragedy. Corners of the Sea is a powerful story of resilience, love, and the triumph of the human spirit, as Thea Brawley Shaw defies the confines of her gender and circumstance to chart her own destiny amidst the unforgiving corners of the sea.
