Morte

A Tale of the Wild North Devon Coast In the 1800s
Set In the village of Mortehoe, a remote village on the wild North Devon Coast, a story based on real places and the actual history of the author’s family.

Morthoe is a remote village on the North Devon Coast with the treacherous rock formation Mort Stone (Death Rock) just off the coast, notorious for its role in numerous shipwrecks. It is where the Bristol Channel meets the Atlantic and is where the author’s family has lived for the past 250 years. From this place come the stories and people in this book.

Captain Parker has newly arrived back from India with his Regiment and has inherited his uncle’s estate and the old Zora Manor House. Soon Parker and Bennett, his Sargent, make their way to Mort and settle in the old Manor House. Now the adventures begin, with shipwrecks, smuggling, wrecking, romance, an escape from Lundy Island, the Mill at Lee. Parker soon finds himself deep in trouble with the Customs, is there a way out for him? Luckily Parker had friends in high places but will they help?
