The Rescue

'The Rescue' is a compelling short read adaptation of Kittie Lambton's prizewinning entry to the Westgate Literary Festival 2019.



The arrival of a sailing yacht named Madeline to the shores of Westgate-on-Sea in Kent, England, marks a turning point in the lives of a visual artist, a mechanic, a Syrian refugee and a fiddle player who plays Klezmer, Classical and Celtic Folk Music. And so begins a heartwarming and uplifting tale of discovery; where acts of kindness and community spirit are rewarded with life-changing consequences that bring hope, opportunity and good fortune to all those who have the courage to embrace strangers.
