The Prince of Rockport Synopsis
He escaped from the confines of an obscure orphanage in the North of Wales
at the age of thirteen. He had been held there as a virtual prisoner for as long as
he could remember. After making his way South to Cardiff, he was able to sign
on to a deep water ship as cabin boy and his future seemed more secure.
In his mid twenties he had achieved his Master Mariners papers and a life that
had become well ordered and successful. After years of battling the monsters of
his past he was finally able to force them firmly behind him. They were buried
forever, or so he thought, until an arranged meeting with a retired bishop at St.
Teilos Church in Cardiff.
On the very eve of his departure for Nova Scotia to take command of a new
vessel from the Mackay Shipyard, the mysterious bishop revealed to him the
startling details of his past. The scandal of the young Prince of Wales, and the
royal cover-up of the events at the British military encampment at the Curragh.
When the young Captain Theophilus Harris arrived at Rockport Nova Scotia in
May of 1887, he stepped into the complicated world of Cornelius MacKay, his
daughter Annie, and the ghosts from their pasts. Theo knew that he had three
distinct life changing courses which he must follow. He must see his vessel and
cargo to the completion of her maiden voyage to the orient and back to New
York, and he must, as directed by the Bishop, visit an elderly woman in a flat
above H. Griffiths store at 72 Pool Street in Caernarvon Wales. Amy Thurston, if
she was still alive, held the keys and the relics of his improbable past. Then he
must, with all haste, return to Rockport and to Annie. But would she wait for him?
