Chasing the Sun

Fred Temple is the kind of young man who seems calm on the surface but hides a restless, daring spirit. As the trusted chief manager of a thriving Liverpool firm, his reputation for fairness and sharp insight has earned him the devotion of every employee. Yet beneath his gentlemanly smile lies a history of reckless climbs, daring rescues, and a longing for adventure that never truly faded.

When rumors spread that Fred plans a three‑month “chase the sun,” his office buzzes with speculation and amusement. He summons the grizzled porter, Old Bob, to join him on a short voyage to Norway, promising a modest schooner and a chance to feel the wind in his hair once more. The promise of unfamiliar horizons hints at a journey that will test both his resolve and the bonds he’s built, setting the stage for an unexpected expedition that could change more than just his calendar.
