Saint of the Siren

" Ava inherits a seaside manor and discovers an antique blue porcelain vase that opens a portal to the Caribbean in 1723. Pirate Captain Killian is trapped in Blackreef Harbor with three thousand refugees, blockaded by the Royal Navy and suffering from severe shortages of food and water. Annoyed by ancient debris constantly spilling from the vase, Ava dumps water and groceries into it out of anger, accidentally saving the trapped people. They communicate via letters across time, and Killian reveres her as a sea saint. Witnessing the refugees’ misery on ancient parchment scrolls, Ava sells pirate relics sent through the vase for a huge fortune to supply food, medicine, construction materials and modern arms. While fending off greedy relatives coveting her property, Killian reinforces coastal defenses and forges new weapons with her aid, quelling internal riots by traitors. Learning Killian is doomed to die in history, Ava spares no expense to send endless supplies as the navy launches a massive siege. Separated by three centuries yet bound by mutual care, the two stand together against the imperial fleet in a redemptive bond across time."
