The Silver Boat: Available for pre-order

From the beloved New York Times bestselling author Luanne Rice comes a heartwarming yet heart-wrenching portrait of three far-flung sisters who come home to Martha’s Vineyard one last time to say goodbye to the family beach house. Memories of their grandmother, mother, and their Irish father, who sailed away the year Dar, the oldest, turned twelve, rise up and expose the fine cracks in their family myth—especially when a cache of old letters reveals enough truth to send them back to their ancestral homeland.

The Silver Boat is published on April 5th and is available for pre-order now.

Read an interview with Luanne.

Described by critics as “a beautiful blend of love and humor, with a little bit of magic thrown in,” and “a rare combination of realism and romance,” Rice’s books often center on love, family, nature and the sea.  Her latest novel The Silver Boat will be released April 5, 2011 and her monologue My Almost Family is part of the upcoming play In Mother Words scheduled to open at Los Angeles’ Geffen Playhouse on February 23, 2011 and New York’s Primary Stages in fall of 2011.

    I have enjoyed reading so many of your books and look forward to the release of The Silver Boat! It’s even more satisfying to read your books since I have visited so many of the places that you write about. With my son currently living in CT, we have reason to travel to the New England coast more often. Our next destination is Martha’s Vineyard!

    There is now a solid grass roots effort by the masses of former climate change believers to have the leading scientists and leading news editors subjected to criminal charges for knowingly sustaining the false CO2 death threats to billions of children for the last 25 years of the climate blame mistake.
    Stay tuned. We missed getting Bush for his false war and a wave of former believer rage will get this one right. Call the courthouse.
