When Meredith Lomond’s bicycle punctures outside his workshop, it becomes a catalyst for a metamorphosis in Michael’s life that will take him on a journey he could never imagine. The consequences test Michael’s mental, moral, and physical strengths to their limits.

He smuggles Daisy and her 4 year-old son to England aboard a small yacht.Storms and tidal races provide a lively, even life-threatening, passage but when they reach England, the maritime elements seem mild in comparison to what awaits them on land. There is a secret between Daisy and her mother from which Michael is excluded. He finds that Jean-Paul has something at stake, too, that makes him infinitely more dangerous than a mere cuckolded husband.Learning to father Daisy's son makes Michael brood about his own estranged child, and after an unexpected encounter he is forced to confront his own childhood too.
