Arlene Starr's review

Dec 07, 2020

it was amazing

This story is written as a narration. It’s a sea story adventure interlaced with phycological romance.
It’s told through a sequence of shifts backward and forward, and is slow reading, fortunately as you progress along it becomes more suspenseful, making it more compelling to read.
It is about Tom Lingard, a character the author writes about in several other books. Tom is on his way to help a native friend reconquer Wajo. Along the way he encounters a stranded yacht and meets a woman. The story is about the conflict between Tom’s dedication to help his friend and the emotional and romantic desires he has for this woman.
