The Keeper
Historical fiction set in Provincetown, Cape Cod, Ma. in 1899. Joshua Duell joins the U.S. Life-Saving Service, which patrolled the beaches in winter storms and saved 175,000 lives in it's brief history. His mother disappeared in a mysterious shipwreck off these shores. During his duties he meets strong and independent Julia, one of two doctors in the area, a rare role for a woman in her time. A story of honor and love, fellowship and betrayal, with electrifying rescue scenes.
