Praise for Storms Gather Between Us 'Another great book by Clare Flynn' Reader Review 'A really gripping and moving pre WWII story' Reader Review 'I would recommend this book without hesitation' Reader Review 'Very descriptive, immersive and well written. This book is guaranteed to make you turn each and every page.' Reader Review 'I was totally gripped from the first page' Reader Review 'Although this novel follows Flynn's A Greater World, it can stand alone, since the characters' backstories are introduced non-intrusively. Will's exploits on the seas and in coastal regions, notably Zanzibar and Naples, and Hannah's confined life and mannerisms in pre-WWII Liverpool are presented vividly, displaying the author's talent and extensive research. The descriptions of the sea voyages and locales are undoubtedly based on Flynn's travels. The novel's skillful plot elucidates the harsh treatment of some women during the period. Readers will look forward to the sequel. Recommended.' Historical Novel Society
