Peril & Plunder (Quest for New England Book 2) Kindle Edition
The Battle of Hastings casts a long shadow…
The English exiles, under the command of Siward of Gloucester, sail into the Mediterranean, where there are wonders awaiting them and treasures ripe for the taking. Braving storms and Saracens, they sail on undaunted, their spirits higher than ever.
But as they settle on the island of Sicily, they find their old enemies, the Normans are already there and discover the wounds of the past are not as healed as they had hoped. When Siward realises the ghosts he thought he had left in England are waiting for him on the island, his fear of failure returns with a vengeance.
Consumed by terror, he struggles to maintain authority over his men, finding even his old friends, Bridwin and Frebern no longer support him. With his behaviour spiralling out of control, Oswyth tries desperately to help her husband until their love too is stretched to breaking point. With Siward no longer appearing to care if he drives everyone away, she is left broken-hearted, convinced her marriage is in tatters.
As it seems Siward will lose both the leadership and everyone he loves, he draws strength from a surprising source. But with Bridwin preparing to take command, has that help come too late to save either his marriage or his friendships?
And as the Norman threat lingers, will Siward’s quest for New England end as just one more broken dream?

About the author

Anna was born in Essex in 1974. She loved reading from an early age, enjoying books such as the Chronicles of Narnia and Watership Down. She discovered historical fiction in her teens and this soon became a favourite genre, with 'Katherine' by Anya Seton one of her most read books.
After a completing a degree in history, Anna lived in Germany for a year before training as a teacher. She currently lives in Devon with her husband and three sons.
Anna has always enjoyed writing and has experimented over the years with various genres including thrillers, children's and science fiction. In 2015 she started work on a book inspired by her love of history and her Scots ancestry. The result was 'Kenneth's Queen', a tale of the nameless wife of Kenneth mac Alpin, his rise to power and the birth of Scotland.
Anna has fallen in love with the medieval era and particularly the lesser known people and events. She plans to tell the story of as many as possible!

- Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2021Anna hits it out of the park again. What an easy way to learn history. Can't wait to read the next book.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2020Although this book really didn't take off for me until almost half way through, I still liked it better than the first book. Starting to warm up to the characters. On to the final book in the series.
