Description

From the violent shores of the Americas, to the dark heart of Amsterdam and on into the marshes of the hol lands, Adam's path ultimately takes him back to Jade - daughter of the man responsible for trying to bring down the Windjammers and seize their company. Her struggle is of a different nature. The struggle for freedom from a father's tyranny; an inner struggle between her desire to punish him and be loved by him. Love and business interests come into conflict as these two young people find their lives forged inextricably together but their loyalties pulling them fiercely apart.

Reviews

Praise for 'The House of Windjammer': 'Its vivid, atmospheric writing tells a gripping tale of the Windjammer family's fall from fortune in 17th-century Amsterdam.' Irish Times
