She has accepted a life shaped by loss. But when the sea delivers the unexpected, everything begins to change.
Scituate, Massachusetts. 1956. Irish American widow Cathe Flanagan is no stranger to fierce nor'easters or quiet sorrow. Raising her young son alone, she has resigned herself to a modest, guarded life on the rugged New England coast.
But when a violent storm drives the battered freighter Etrusco toward the rocky shore, thirty desperate souls fight for survival. Among the rescued Italian seamen sheltered in her small town, one stranger quietly alters the rhythm of Cathe's world.
As friendship deepens into something neither of them anticipated, Cathe must confront wounds she has long buried, including her struggle to reconcile her Catholic faith with the suffering that shaped her life. When a shocking act of violence threatens everything, she is forced to choose between fear and faith, isolation and love.
With salvage operations underway and time slipping away, Cathe knows her second chance may be as fleeting as the tide.
Inspired by true events, Rebecca Road is a sweeping work of historical women's fiction that explores grief, resilience, faith, and the transformative power of love along the perilous shores of the North Atlantic.
