Synopsis
Two years ago, her fiance perished
during their voyage to America.
Now she discovers it may have been murder...
Dreaming
of a better life, Tillie McGrath leaves Ireland behind and, with her
beloved fiance by her side, sets sail for America. But when illness robs
her of the man she holds dear, she's left alone with only a handful of
tattered memories. While forging on proves difficult, Tillie soon finds
some new friends at her New York boardinghouse, and begins pursuing a
new dream--to open a home for orphaned children.
Despite two
years passing, Captain Keondric Morgan has never forgotten the lass who
left his ship so heartbroken. When a crewman's deathbed confession
reveals her fiance's demise was the result of murder, the captain knows
he must try to contact her. But his attention draws the notice of others
as well--dangerous men who believe Tillie has in her possession
something that could expose their crimes. And to their way of thinking,
the best way to prevent such an outcome is to seize the evidence and
then hand Tillie the same fate as her naïve fiance.
