About the Book

The pursuit of happiness.
​
The spirited years of our life, when we hurry through busy days with strength and endurance like the cargo ship the Autumn Wind pushing through the ocean. We stop at different ports and experience new things as different people come and go from our lives, some friends and some foes. Like the character Regan, we are forced to face, and take responsibility for our adult mistakes. We learn to accept our handicaps, be they physical like Niko or emotional like Loren. We seek fulfilment in life through love, marriage and children, and pursue happiness knowing the Winds of Autumn are not far off.

Reviews

"Shae describes the ruggedness of sea life in startling detail. ... Mistaken identities, revenge, and betrayal all have a part to play, and the exotic locales only add to the intoxicating atmosphere of intrigue. The contrast in characterization between Niko and Regan is strikingly complex, and their opposite personalities generate tension and exhilaration. Several other side characters keep things lively and amusing, and the addition of an organized crime element gives the story a satisfying edge.

A gratifying page-turner that’s perfect for a summer read."
