Through Waters Deep
is my very first Sarah Sundin novel and I really enjoyed it. Taking place right before America entered
into Word War 2, it portrays some of the pressure of those that were living in
Boston at the time. Starting with the distrust
of all Germans, the French and British wanting the Americans to enter the war, and
those that did not want the draft to be enforced and who wanted their sons back
home made this read full of high tension.
With rising threats of a saboteur harming the ships, our heroine, Mary, with Nancy Drew tendencies
is focused on finding the guilty party and doing her part to aid in the
war. She meets up with old high school
buddy Ensign Jim Avery whom she becomes close friends with and he believes her
suspicions. Alternating between Boston
and Jim’s time on ship acting as a convoy we are given a much more complete
picture of the times of an ordinary citizen and the sailors on board during
this crisis in American history. The
romance was a gradual one and the action at times was nonstop. In regards to the romance, I wanted to at
times shake both of them and tell them to open their eyes. When they finally did realize what fools they
had been, they sizzled. This was book
one and I look forward to book two when we meet Jim’s sister. I received this book for an honest review
from Revell Publishing and the opinions are my own.
