The sailor’s Wife is based on a true story. A treasured yacht stolen from Royal Cape Yacht Club in Cape Town South Africa. 

Pages filled with drama of a crazy worldwide search to find Alter Ego, the yacht truly his Other Self for Nelson.

His dreamboat. A descendant of the famous Admiral of Trafalgar.

 

His business bankrupted by the US/UK economic sanctions, of the eighties, determination to find the lost boat is frantic.

Having hit news headlines, false alarms of sightings shower in.  Albatrosses of the S.A.Airforce assist  on  coastal reconnaissance.

 

Yet the chicken had quickly flown the coop.

Where in the world?   Like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Months pass.   Nothing.   Until a call, in the early hours one morning, l from a caring Good Samaritan on a faraway Island and then…


The story takes off across distant oceans.  Described as more like a movie than real life   

Problems, euphoria, danger, delight, drama galore catapult over each other.  Culminating eventually in a challenging, exciting new path in life.   

Undreamed of until then.

All reviews describe book as a page turner.
