It’s 1676 and ‘spirits’ are stalking the kingdom. When eight-year-old Penny is kidnapped outside Whitehall Palace and spirited away to the West Indies, how can Susannah and Raphael hope to save her?
Arriving in Jamaica, they reunite with Sam Carter – Penny’s natural father – and Noah and Hal Bartholomew. And so, the desperate search to find her begins: a race against time, treachery and powerful enemies.
After many fruitless months sailing the Caribbean, seemingly genuine information about a sugar plantation where Penny might be sends them back to Barbados. But are they already too late?
A riveting historical adventure set in 17th century West Indies, Our Little Life is the second book in Dodie Bishop's 'Silence And Shadows' series.
Chapter 1
Dodie Bishop grew up in St Annes on Lancashire’s Fylde Coast and in the New Forest in Hampshire, spending much of her life there before moving to Devon. Now living in the Blackdown Hills with her husband and overindulged cat, she has sons in London and Sydney. With a First-Class Honours degree in English Literature, she completed a Master’s in Creative Writing and discovered her metier in historical fiction, so much so she now calls herself a time-traveller to the 17th century. She is a full-time writer, following an earlier career as a company director and an independent bookseller, so books are very close to her heart.
