Tom is not sure why his grandfather wants to see him, but Grandpa Tom is taking his own sweet time to tell the tale, a tale going back to the 1700’s. In the final days of the Civil War, the Cape Fear area is the subject of intense attention. Confederate Blockade Runners bring in desperately needed supplies via the Wilmington train. The engineer is a hero to his nephew, from whose trembling lips we hear the untold story of Gaston’s Last Run. In the uncertain days before the Second World War, a sailor on the pride of the fleet, the North Carolina, and a young local girl, meet and fall in love at the Lumina Pavilion on the Carolina coast. A study in spontaneous inevitability, a young man finds himself short on options and meets a young woman in a similar situation.
