Salvage

"Salvage" by Roy Norton is a tale set in the early 1900s along the bustling port of Piræus, Greece, where Captain Eli Drake, a struggling shipowner, faces ruin as big steamship companies monopolize trade. When Drake finds a ship, the Rhodialim, and suspects its captain, Bill Morris, is about to sink it, he sees a chance to reverse his fortunes. Teaming up with his trusted crew and a clever engineer named Giuseppe Beltramo, Drake plans to salvage the vessel, leading to a dangerous confrontation marked by trickery and fierce determination. Drake's adventure turns into a fight for survival and justice, ultimately rewarding his crew's loyalty with the spoils of their daring seafaring victory.
