Synopsis
“Isabelle Audley, delirious and half-drowned, is the soul survivor of a shipwreck of the Isle of Guernsey in 1804. Her parents had died in India, and Isabelle was on her way to England to claim her inheritance. Grudgingly taken in at a Guernsey farm, she slowly regains her strength, only to be faced with greater dilemmas. Destitute, and with no way of proving who she is, Isabelle must establish her identity with her unknown Audley relations, and aunt and uncle with everything to gain from her death.
Meanwhile, on the French coast, little more than an hour's sail from Guernsey, Napoleon Bonaparte is massing his forces for an invasion of England. When Lieutenant Charles de Beaumanoir of the Royal Navy arrives to investigate the castaway, Isabelle at last finds an ally--and more--in the young Guernseyman.
CASTAWAY is an exciting and romantic story, with a vividly described naval encounter as its gripping climax."--from inside dust jacket flap
