Redemption
Redemption is the third novel of the Stanfield Chronicles Historical trilogy. It’s 1628. The early stages of the Great Migration to New England have begun. The first boatloads of what will become a flood of settlers arrive, under-equipped and ill-prepared.
Isaac and his family, driven by personal loss, political and religious conflict, migrate to New England on a nightmare voyage. Surviving the journey, they face mortal danger from unseen foes and fight to survive when half their fellow settlers die from sickness, cold and malnutrition.
Amidst the horrors, Isaac seeks to protect his family and rebuild his fortunes only to find the past returns to haunt him.

About the author
David Tory
3 books26 followersI spent over 30 years in the computer industry, starting in the UK in 1962. This was followed by 13 years with the Essex County Community Foundation which I co-founded in 1998. I live on Cape Ann, Massachusetts, with Helen, my wife of 48 years.
After retiring from ECCF, I felt the urge to research the origins of philanthropy in New England. My research uncovered facts about the early settlements here that appeared to be generally unknown. As I delved deeper, the character Isaac Stanfield evolved to become the observer and participant in that early history.
Boats have been a part of my life from an early age. After moving to the United States in 1980, Helen and I spent over 30 years sailing our 37′ Pearson. We fell in love with the coast of Maine, its history, the bays, islands, fog, and abundant wildlife.

I do not usually read historical fiction books but I figured since I was awarded it, I might as well try it. I thought that it was interesting but not my cup of tea. I thought that everything was well done in this book, I just was not the target audience. Overall, I do recommend this book.
