About
When everything familiar is taken from her, Rosie Winterbourne does the only thing she knows how to do: she goes to sea.
A gifted naval sailor with a fierce will to endure, Rosie is already fractured by loss when her life begins to unravel—her career derailed, her loyalties tested, and her sense of reality itself called into question. Haunted by memory, driven by guilt, and carrying a secret she barely understands, she turns to the one place that has ever offered her clarity: the open ocean.
Alone aboard a small yacht, Rosie sets out on a journey that is as dangerous inwardly as it is outwardly. Storms rise, boundaries blur, and the sea becomes both adversary and refuge. As miles slip astern, she is forced to confront not only the physical risks of sailing alone, but the deeper truths she has spent her life outrunning—about grief, identity, courage, and the cost of survival.
To Run Before the Sea is a powerful, emotionally charged novel about resilience and reckoning, where the vastness of the ocean mirrors the depths of the human mind. Written with authenticity, intensity, and grace, it explores what happens when the only way forward is into the unknown—and when staying afloat means finally letting yourself feel.
