Fresh from a successful voyage in the Baltic, Captain Tim Phillips returns home, where his ship is sent to the dockyard for much needed repairs. Phillips travels to his home to re-unite with his family. Upon receiving a summons to the Admiralty, he learns his ship has been destroyed by fire. Along with the command of a newly built brig, he receives orders for a cruise in the Mediterranean, where the wife of an important government official has been taken by pirates. His mission will be to attempt the almost impossible task of locating the woman. Upon his return, secrecy considerations require that ship and men be sent to waters far from Britain. Should the press discover some of the details of the last mission, much damage would result. Therefore, he sails away on another mission to foreign parts to suppress attacks on shipping of the East India Company in the Indian Ocean. The young captain hopes his notoriety will have died down by the time he returns home.

In February 1995, Richey Edwards checked out of a London hotel instead of flying to the US with the rest of the Manic Street Preachers. There were a few subsequent sightings but then nothing. His body was never found, and he was declared legally dead in November 2008. Now Richard tells the story of his life – and disappearance – as he might have told it. ‘This moving, tender novel tells the story of a lost boy adrift in a world that he can’t make sense of’ Marie Claire ‘Myers deserves credit not only for adding a third dimension to Edwards, but for trying a fourth, for attempting to document a period of his life that seems destined to remain a mystery’ The Times ‘A sympathetic and sad imagining of the boy who became a reluctant pop idol’ Time Out ‘Harrowing and hauntingly sad’ Mojo
