Through further investigation, he began to suspect the locals, and in particular the parson, Robert Hawker, of luring the ship to her destruction on Cornwall's jagged shore. Wrecking is known to have been widespread along several stretches of England's coast. But is that what happened in Morwenstow?Seal weaves history, travelogue and vivid imaginative reconstruction into a marvellous piece of detective work..
