Set in a widow's house on the coast. A young widow and her son come as winter lodgers in an elderly widow's house and the advent of an old admirer convinces the young woman to marry again - though her heart was buried with her drowned sailor husband. A stranger resuces her son only days before the wedding - and proves to be her husband miraculously rescued. The former suitor disappears but anonymously sends them £1000 to help them settle in Australia. (PB)
