Thus it was that Molly became known as the illegitimate child of a reprobate, consigned to a future not unlike that of her mother. In order to free herself, she must ensnare a man of humble origin who will accept her, love her, and whose successful career will help her to surmount her mother's shame. That man is Elijah Merrick, a young and enterprising sea captain who understands that in wooing and winning her, he will have to defend her from his mother; fight his Cape town's determination to ostracize her, and force The Church of the Standing Order, Congregational, to accept her. In this he succeeds -- But he cannot defeat Molly's attraction to Isaac Warden....
