I enjoyed this and it’s not often I read a book in one sitting so B_Fox is complemented. The author expresses inner thoughts without seeming self-indulgent and speaks to the reader holding attention. There are some great sit up and take note descriptive moments. Are there autobiog moments too I wonder? There may be a tad too much inner reflection in that on occasion I wanted to move on with the plot. There is emotion here, in the setting and in the characters. I hope B. Fox has more to say and look forward to reading it. For me this was an impulse buy that well and truly paid off.
Note – this is a review for the paperback edition.
My debut novel 'New Beginnings on Vancouver Island' is a historical romantic saga that features Whitehaven in Cumberland and the west coast of Canada, Set in 1854 it is faction based upon a journey taken by my relatives when they signed up with the Hudson's Bay Company to open up the mines in Colville (now Nanaimo). This is my debut novel. My second novel, "The Shackletons of Whitehaven'' a saga novel about a shipping family was published in September 2022.
