'"I want to make a difference in the world and all I get is more washing up!"
Marheh had longed to be apprenticed to the Silberay but the experience was not quite what she imagined. Her mentor expected her to be obedient, even humble, and instead of teaching her to steer the boat they lived on she expected her to tend the fire and empty the toilet bucket.

Living together on a small boat was only the first challenge...' (Publisher's blurb)
