Miss Doyle's Journey and Relationships

In 1832, Miss Doyle arrives at the bustling docks of Liverpool, England, to board the ship Seahawk for her journey to America. She meets Mr. Grummage, a business associate of her father, who is responsible for her travel arrangements. After bidding farewell to her chaperone, Miss Emerson, Miss Doyle is captivated by the chaos and excitement of the docks.
