Time and Tide

Time and Tide collects three linked maritime novellas. Cold Truth follows an interwar Arctic expedition whose concealed failure resurfaces during the Battle of the Atlantic; The Judgement of His Peers reconstructs the career and catastrophic misconduct of Claude Bastable; and An Absence of Imagination places a British captain in danger on the Communist Chinese coast.

Together the stories examine professional responsibility across changing generations of seafarers. Memory, guilt and political pressure expose how decisions made aboard isolated ships can destroy lives long after the immediate voyage has ended.
