Deep Harbor

By Lisa Tawn Bergren

Book Overview

From the richly forested banks of the Washington Territory; to the burgeoning city of San Francisco; and across the turbulent, danger-filled waves of the open sea-you will experience an epic saga of perseverance and pain, faith and calling in Deep Harbor. Determined to live "the good life," no matter the price, Tora Anders weaves a web of lies that could cost her everything she cares for-including a successful future and the man she loves-but lead her to what her soul most desperately needs. Her sister, Elsa Ramstad, has everything her heart desires- a loving husband, a family she adores, and a fulfilling life at sea. Then tragedy strikes. Now, drawing upon her faith and all the strength she can muster, Elsa must once again discover the woman she is and who she chooses to be. Four years after her husband's disappearance, Kaatje Janssen struggles to raise two young daughters and tend her farm. But when help comes from the most unlikely source, Kaatje faces both uncertainty about the future and a deep secret from her past. And after years of grappling with his feelings for Elsa and the mistakes he has made, Karl is caught in a life of loneliness and emptiness. Can he finally accept the reality of what he once lost and open himself up to the possibility of what could be? Separated by physical distance and emotional boundaries, these four bound by friendship and family find each other once again and discover that some ties can never be broken in Deep Harbor, Book Two in The Northern Lights series.

Five Star Author

God has given Lisa a great gift of writing. Her wisdom and insight into God's love, grace and mercy to hurting humanity is SPECIAL. I have many of her books, which I have enjoyed and will continue to enjoy (because they are keepers) but as a widow, I've been truly blessed by the Northern Lights Series and Until the Shadows Flee. The people in her stories are SO real.....they become your friends. I wait with anticipation for all her new books. Guess you can tell I'm hooked. Thank you Lisa for sharing your gift with us. God bless you and keep you prolific (for my benefit) Vondia Caruso

A great book!

I really enjoyed this book, and I highly recommend it.

This can't be happening!

This isn't some happy-go-lucky book that gives you the warm fuzzies. That's what makes it so great. You don't know what's going to happen next, and when it happens you're saying "This can't be happening! She can't do that!" Yet with all the plot, Lisa Bergren still is able to weave in a powerful message about Jesus Christ.

Best yet from Lisa Tawn Bergren!

I just finished reading DEEP HARBOR. It truly is my favorite of all Lisa Tawn Bergren's works. Her contemporaries are superb, but her historicals are magnificent! I love the way I can settle into the world she has created with her Northern Lights series. The only problem is that I've wanted both CAPTAIN'S BRIDE and DEEP HARBOR to last forever. Hooray, Ms. Bergren! Keep writing! I can't wait for number three!

Fabulous! A real page turner.

If you have read The Captain's Bride then this is a MUST READ! It continues the story of Peder and Elsa, Karl, Tora and all those you learned about in the first book. The book is so full of real like characters that you feel their pain and their joys. Lisa Tawn Bergren has done it once again. I'm looking forward to Book 3 due out next spring.
