In fact, romance never played much of a part in Nellie's life at all.

That is, until renowned biblical archaeologist, Henry J. Lewiston, arrives on the scene and turns Nellie's very secure world upside down.

Henry pursues Nellie in vein until he convinces her that everyone is disfigured in some way. Then one afternoon while on an excursion to the Casco Bay lighthouse with Henry she discovers a mysterious vessel. Meanwhile, Henry embarks on a mystery of his own. When Nellie receives his frantic call from London, she puts aside her own feelings and rushes to his side. What follows is a remarkable testament to God's loving plan of redemption.
