Tide and Tempest is the third book in Elizabeth Ludwig’s Edge Of Freedom series. I thoroughly enjoyed the first two books and I patiently waited for this book to come out. Well, my patience paid off! Tillie McGrath was introduced in the previous books. A little bit of her history was revealed in the prior two books. She arrived in New York from Ireland, having traveled on Captain Keondric Morgan’s ship. The book starts with Captain Morgan checking in on Tillie, having not seen her since he dropped her off two years before. He has discovered some information that may affect her life, and in his quest to see her remain safe himself becomes endangered.
I have to say that I loved this book and had a very hard time putting it down. Keondric is a very well rounded character and I fell in love with him from the first. Tillie is also a great character and very easy to love. Cass Morgan, the captain’s brother, is an excellent secondary character and really helps tie the story together. I really love how Ms. Ludwig continued with the mystery from the first book, and keeps the reader guessing all of the way through. Each book in the series reveals a little more until you get a full picture of what was going on. What is great about this book is that the author also retells what is going on and gives enough details about the story, so the reader still knows what is going on even if she hasn’t read the first two books. If reading this book first, you will definitely want to go back and read the first two.
If you love history and romance and mystery, then this book is an excellent recommendation for you as all three genres are covered. I highly recommend this book.
