With her medical career in jeopardy, her son off and married, and her own marriage nearly dissolved, forty-three-year-old Isabelle has reached a difficult moment in her life. At times like these, more than ever, she finds solace in a good book.
A lover of anything historical, she's currently caught up in a series of books featuring high-seas adventures during the Napoleonic Wars. Reading about the heroic exploits of Dr. Simon Hunter and Captain Alex Hayden on the warship Isis lights a flame in her heart like the one that had burned in her youth, when her adventurous spirit took her to Ecuador with the Peace Corps. Isabelle becomes so involved in the story that she dreams she's onboard the Isis with her swashbuckling heroes, applying her medical skills-and falling in love.
When friends offer a chance at real-life escape on a yacht trip down the west coast of South America, she decides she could use the vacation. But this is no regular vacation, as Isabelle's dreamland and waking world begin to strangely intersect.
Anyone who's ever gotten lost in a good book will delight in Isabelle's escapades in this magical historic novel with a modern twist.
