Through Waters Deep by Sarah Sundin Review & Giveaway

Through Waters Deep (Revell, August 2015)

It is 1941 and America teeters on the brink of war.

Outgoing naval officer Ensign Jim Avery escorts British convoys across the North Atlantic in a brand-new destroyer, the USS Atwood. Back on shore, Boston Navy Yard secretary Mary Stirling does her work quietly and efficiently, happy to be out of the limelight. Yet, despite her reserved nature, she never could back down from a challenge. When evidence of sabotage on the Atwood is found, Jim and Mary must work together to uncover the culprit. A bewildering maze of suspects emerges, and Mary is dismayed to find that even someone close to her is under suspicion. With the increasing pressure, Jim and Mary find that many new challenges–and dangers–await them.

Sarah Sundin takes readers to the tense months before the US entered WWII. Readers will encounter German U-boats and torpedoes, along with the explosive power of true love, in this hopeful and romantic story.

My Review:

This is a great view into the life of navy soldiers. Especially before there were cell phones or emails. This was definitely a book that I had to read as much as I could. Being on a ship with a saboteur is not a good thing. There is no where to go. Add in a war, and a new relationship, and I could not stop reading. I liked the ending and I really liked the ups and downs in this story. I can not wait to read the next book in the series. I am giving this book a 4/5. I was given a copy to review, however all opinions are my own.
