All he had to do was look carefully enough , ask the right questions, find the right people, keep sailing on, and he would find her.
In 1943, Stead arrives in Sydney Harbour hoping to spend his shore leave with Marina, a woman with whom he shared three magical days before the war. But Marina is gone, and has been missing for almost five years.
And so begins an extraordinarily powerful and compelling journey - across the seas and the great stages of the war - as Stead retraces the steps of the one woman he has truly loved.
Taking you from London after the Blitz to the booming Shanghai and fallen Singapore, The Voyagers is a book you won't be able to put down. An unforgettable and breathtaking novel of heartbreak, courage and unwavering love.
