WAR IS COMING.
CAN LOVE CARRY THEM THROUGH THE ROUGH WATERS THAT LIE AHEAD?
It is 1941 and America teeters on the brink of war. Handsome and outgoing naval officer Ensign Jim Avery escorts British convoys across the North Atlantic in a brand-new destroyer, the USS Atwood. On shore, Jim encounters Mary Stirling, a childhood friend who is now an astute and beautiful Boston Navy Yard secretary.
When evidence of sabotage on the Atwood is discovered, Jim and Mary must work together to uncover the culprit. A bewildering maze of suspects emerges, and Mary is dismayed to find that even someone close to her is under suspicion. With the increasing pressure, Jim and Mary find that many new challenges – and dangers – await them.
Love Sarah Sundin's latest!
Sarah Sundin is one of the best WWII fiction authors out there. I've really come to enjoy her books and so I have looked forward to the release of Through Waters Deep. The book lived up to and exceeded expectations as her books always do. I loved the addition of suspense with the sabotage angle. Sarah Sundin has a way of painting pictures with words. The reader is transported into the pre-war atmosphere, and I felt like I was right there walking the streets of Boston and the decks of the Atwood. I actually learned quite a bit while reading this book. I had never heard the terms 'isolationist' and 'interventionist' nor had I ever really thought about how intentionally blind to the impending war that many Americans were. Sarah Sundin successfully and subtly blended a little history lesson into this very entertaining story. |

Through Waters Deep has one of the loveliest covers. It really matches the uncertainty and drama of the story and leads the mind back to days gone by. The red dress was a nice touch as readers will recognize the nod to Mary's blossoming and tentative choosing of the bright color.
Historical fiction and WWII fiction fans are in for a real treat in Through Waters Deep, a story that is not to be missed!
Tell Tale Book Reviews gives Through Waters Deep by Sarah Sundin a 4 Bark rating.
