Tom Lingard is captain of the brig Lightning, sailing through the trade routes of the Eastern Archipelago. When he comes to the aid of an English yacht stranded off Karimata, Lingard falls for one of its passengers, a married woman, and faces an agonising choice between love and duty. The Rescue, a novel which took Conrad twenty years to complete, brings to an atmospheric conclusion the trilogy that also includes Almayer's Folly and An Outcast of the Islands.
