Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"In the Roar of the Sea" by S. Baring-Gould is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story unfolds primarily around the lives of Judith Trevisa and her brother, Jamie, following the death of their father, the local rector. The narrative delves into themes of familial responsibility, societal challenges, and the looming threat posed by the enigmatic and morally ambiguous figure of Captain Coppinger, a man with a notorious reputation." "The opening of the novel introduces us to Judith Trevisa, a spirited and innocent young girl who is deeply affected by her father's passing. As she and her father engage in a conversation in the parsonage garden, it's evident that he is weary, hinting at deeper troubles troubling their lives. When he unexpectedly passes away, Judith is thrust into the role of caretaker for her brother, Jamie, who is portrayed as childlike and dependent. Their struggle is further complicated by the harsh reality of their aunt's arrival, who takes a pragmatic but cold approach to their situation. This initial portion sets the stage for Judith's journey through grief, responsibility, and the threats that loiter in the wake of their father's legacy."
