  1818.  A fierce storm drives the HMS Relentless to the shores of a remote Bahamian island—where Captain Johnathan Gresham makes a haunting discovery––the grave of a murdered man, and a woman who should not have survived. 
  Terrified, scarred, and clinging to her faith, the mysterious lady remembers nothing but the brutal faces of her tormentors. As Gresham offers her sanctuary, he finds himself drawn into a web of secrets that reach from the Caribbean seas to the heart of England. 
  Still, someone is desperate to silence her forever. Hunted by ruthless enemies—and shadowed by an admiral intent on having her committed—Gresham must risk his honor, his command, and his very life to protect her. 
  In a world of treachery, faith and courage may be their only refuge. 
  Those Who Trespass is a sweeping tale of danger, devotion, and the redemptive power of love—perfect for readers of Michelle Griep, Jamie Jo Wright, and Hannah Linder.
