New Zealand Fiction

Devenport Naval Base, New Zealand, 1962: With her husband away at sea, Sophie Flynn's life is becoming considerably complicated. She has two children to look after, the captain's wife to minister to, a wayward sister to keep an eye on, and an elderly neighbor to nurse. As if that wasn't enough, Sophie falls in love with the commodore, adding a volatile element to the mix. This romantic novel--spiked with a dash of feminism--offers deeply perceptive observations of married life.
