Safe Haven

High adventure, severe danger, survival, loss and renewal - they're found in both halves of this beautiful novel.

When lone yachtsman David Samson rescues Elizabeth James and her daughter from the teeth of disaster off Labrador, they little know that six months of ice-bound hell await them.

Their survival is down to David's courage and seamanship, as they sail to Bird Rock Island and make their final landfall in the west of Ireland. Here, settled in their new home, 'Safe Haven', nothing can go wrong for them... Can it?

Psychological insight and an intimate knowledge of that cruel mistress, the sea, give Donald Hindle's writing an acute edge. Here's an uplifting saga spread over a broad canvas, with a parade of characters, a story within a story, and a neat twist at the end. Who could ask for more?
