Produktinformationen zu „The Kingdoms “
Would you change the past to save the future - if it meant losing those you love most? An enthralling, epic, unforgettable time-slip story from the Sunday Times bestselling author, that takes us from French-occupied London to a remote Scottish lighthouse and the heat of a naval battle that holds the difference between one future and another.
Klappentext zu „The Kingdoms “
Come home, if you remember. The postcard has been held at the sorting office for ninety-one years, waiting to be delivered to Joe Tournier. On the front is a lighthouse - Eilean Mor, in the Outer Hebrides. Joe has never left England, never even left London. He is a British slave, one of thousands throughout the French Empire. He has a job, a wife, a baby daughter. But he also has flashes of a life he cannot remember and of a world that never existed - a world where English is spoken in England, and not French. And now he has a postcard of a lighthouse built just six months ago, that was first written nearly one hundred years ago, by a stranger who seems to know him very well. Joe's journey to unravel the truth will take him from French-occupied London to a remote Scottish island, and back through time itself as he battles for his life - and for a very different future.
