Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. On a stormy December afternoon, young Alan Allenby sets sail to visit his godfather, the keeper of the Loadstone Light. Unbeknownst to him, a sinister craft, the Sea-Snake, has also arrived at St. Kildas Cay, carrying two dangerous men with a mission to break a prisoner out of the notorious Prybyl Prison. As Alan gets caught in their web of deceit, the narrative delves into the dark underbelly of crime and corruption, where loyalties are tested and lives hang in the balance. Set against the backdrop of a remote island steeped in history and legend, this book weaves together themes of love, loss, and the struggle between good and evil. The author skillfully captures the complexities of human nature, exploring the motivations of both the criminals and those who seek to bring them to justice. Through Alan's journey, we are confronted with questions about the nature of power, the allure of freedom, and the consequences of our choices. Ultimately, this book offers a glimpse into the shadowy world of the criminal underworld and the enduring power of human connection in the face of adversity.
