Dark Tides

Midsummer Eve, 1670. Twenty-one years after she was left by the man she loved, Alinor has built a life for herself and her family on the banks of the Thames in London. When two unexpected visitors arrive—James Avery, wealthy and determined to claim Alinor once again, and a Venetian widow named Livia who insists Alinor’s son drowned in the lagoon—Alinor refuses to believe it. Convinced her son is still alive, she senses deception. Meanwhile, her brother Ned struggles in New England as tensions mount between settlers and Indigenous people. Moving between London, Venice, and America, Dark Tides is a sweeping story of secrets, ambition, and a mother’s unshakable faith.
