The Adventures of Martin Vallance and the Hebe Escape
The narrator Vallance recounts aboard the Alexandra how the Hebe brig captained by Fortescue is pursued after a mutiny scare. Aboard the cruiser, Captain Murray arranges aid, Helen Fortescue joins Vallance aboard, and the Hebe is hurt by fire while survivors are saved. The voyage ends with Vallance marrying Helen, settling at Combe Moham, and reflecting on the sea’s pull.
