Dark Tides

About this book

THE SECOND NOVEL IN THE CAPTIVATING FAIRMILE SERIES FROM NUMBER ONE BESTSELLING AUTHOR, PHILIPPA GREGORY, TRACKING THE RISE OF THE TIDELANDS FAMILY IN LONDON, VENICE AND NEW ENGLAND.

Midsummer Eve, 1670. A turbulent time to seek the truth . . .

 A wealthy man waits outside a poor London warehouse to meet with Alinor, the woman he failed twenty-one years before. He has everything to offer: money, land, status. He believes she has the only thing he cannot buy: his son and heir.

Meanwhile in New England, Alinor’s brother Ned cannot find justice in the New World, as the King’s revenge stretches across the Atlantic and turns the pioneers against each other and against the American Indians.

Then, a beautiful widow, Livia, arrives from Venice. She claims Alinor as her mother-in-law and has come with the news that Alinor’s son Rob has drowned in the dark tides of the lagoon. But is this true or could this woman be an imposter . . . ?

From London to New England and Venice, the dark tides always rise, and with them come secrets and enemies . . .

‘A gripping read spanning London, Venice and New England, all beautifully observed by Gregory’ Woman & Home

Praise for Tidelands, the first in the Fairmile series:

‘A gripping and intelligent portrait of a woman fighting to survive in a hostile world’ The Times

‘The first in a planned series . . . The author crafts her material with effortless ease. Her grasp of social mores is brilliant, the love story rings true and the research is, as ever, of the highest calibre’ Elizabeth Buchan, Daily Mail

‘Vivid and beguiling – Philippa Gregory at her best’ Woman & Home

‘A compelling novel that shines a light on the struggles of 17th century women’ Daily Mirror

‘The novel's power lies in Gregory's evocative portrayal of the tidelands and the everyday lives of those who are bound to them’ Sunday Express

‘If this novel is the first sign of what's to come then readers are in for a treat’ Emma Lee-Potter, Daily Express
