London, 1690. The morning his mother dies, ten-year-old Ethan is put out onto the street with nothin, no money, no plan and no one coming for him. What he builds from that moment is extraordinary: a life balanced on a knife's edge between the law and the city that made him, between the boy he was and the man he is slowly, stubbornly becoming. By day he works as a reluctant pickpocket, by night he files reports for the Parish that employs him. He outsmarts magistrates, but he is promoted, against his will, into the institution he has spent years quietly working around. He has mapped every alley, every face, every price. London is his, and he has earned every inch of it. Then a single word, Kent, sends him out into the worst storm England has ever known. A destination he has no map for. Set against the real catastrophe of the great storm of 1703, this is a story of a boy where the sea finally showed him who he was.
