Imagine, if you can, a lifelike eighteenth-century seafaring epic (something along the lines of Carsten Jensen's [[We, the Drowned by Carsten Jensen|We, the Drowned]] or Carol Birch's [[Jamrach's Menagerie by Carol Birch|Jamrach's Menagerie]]) crossed with Sarah Waters's ''Fingersmith''. If you then added in touches of Charles Dickens's ''Bleak House'', plus shades of the rest of the homoerotic Waters oeuvre (especially ''Night Watch'' and ''Tipping the Velvet''), you would just about have Kate Worsley's debut novel, ''She Rises'', in a nutshell.
