[PDF] Star Of The Sea by Joseph O'Connor

[PDF] Star Of The Sea by Joseph O'Connor, Thrilling and full of suspense, this is a novel of Ireland set on a New York-bound ocean liner.

In the winter of 1847, from an Ireland torn by disaster and injustice, the Star of the Sea sets sail for New York. On board are hundreds of fleeing emigrants. Among them are a maidservant with a devastating secret, bankrupt Lord Merridith and his family, an aspiring novelist, and a maker of revolutionary ballads -- all braving the Atlantic in search of a new home. But a camouflaged killer is stalking the decks, hungry for the vengeance that will bring absolution.

The journey of twenty-six days will see many lives end, and others begin afresh. In a spellbinding story of tragedy and mercy, love and healing, the further the ship sails towards the Promised Land, the more her passengers seem moored to a past which will never let them go.
