Summary
Captain Fitzjames was positively buoyant. “Here is what I shall do for you, Francis. Since you are determined to see your Miss Cracroft again, and to gain a private audience – perhaps renew any lingering affections that have burned bright ere these icy winters – then I shall play the role with gusto, so you may endeavor to practise this encounter prior to our journey home.”
A brief silence fell over the dining table. Captain Crozier’s countenance was nothing short of dumbfounded.
“I pray you repeat yourself, sir.”

Summary
“Dressed like this, on a night like this: you look like I’m free to pursue my hope,” Francis remarked. “If I should ever express my fancy for you, now is the time. How shall I convince you of my desire?”
“Show me,” James said quite simply.

Summary
I’ll not have a picture, he thinks, gazing grimly at James’ drawn, damaged face. I’ll not have a miniature to tuck inside my breast pocket, or a sketch made on a winter’s evening by the fireside. It will be my own burden to remember him, until such a time as this cursed land takes me, too.
Twenty five men return to England. For Francis, this means making a poor job of keeping James from scuttling his career, and working out what a sea captain might do with himself in the absence of a ship.
