The Voyagers : A Love Story

In 1943, Stead arrives in Sydney Harbour hoping to spend his shore leave with Marina, a woman with whom he shared three magical days before the war. But Marina is gone, and has been missing for almost five years. And so begins an extraordinarily powerful and compelling journey - across the seas and the great stages of the war - as Stead retraces the steps of the one woman he has truly loved. From London after the Blitz to the booming Shanghai and fallen Singapore, The Voyagers is a book you won't be able to put down.
