SHIPS OF THE NIGHT

NATTENS SKIBE —SHIPS OF THE NIGHT

by Anna Bridgewater

COPENHAGEN, 1807: The English bombardment has set the capital ablaze. In the chaos of war, young Sophie Husmann loses her husband, is forced to flee her home, and faces an uncertain future. In the midst of the attack, she meets Adam Durant, who, like her, is seeking shelter from the rain of bombs. He is a single father and is also struggling to keep himself and his life together. But how can that be done when everything around them is on fire?

SHIPS OF THE NIGHT is a compelling tale of love and duty, of naval battles and grief—and of the kind of love that can arise when the world is in turmoil. The novel is the second independent volume in Anna Bridgwater’s trilogy about the English Wars, one of the most decisive chapters in the history of the two countries.
