The Glass Ocean novel is a story of three deeply flawed women at an important point in their lives. There’s a Byronic Hero and a Friends to Lovers plot, and I love it. Some of the love stories will have readers rooting for the couple, while others will make readers cringe.
The book also looks at blossoming love, love interrupted by a misunderstanding, childhood love, and long-term love grown apart. First, The Glass Ocean looks at the love between sisters, and how, no matter what, sisters will do what they can to protect each other. Woven among the mystery is the question of love.
RELATED: ‘The Summer Country’ by Lauren Willig: A Beautiful Historical Epic Someone on board is working with the Germans, and it could be anyone. There are also German spies and the fear of an attack from a German U-boat. There’s something mysterious happening on the Lusitania as she heads across the Atlantic, and it’s somehow tied to a piece of music. Genre-wise, The Glass Ocean book is a mystery. This makes each character stand out from the others a bit more and helps me keep them apart. Having three authors, one per character, makes that clearer. When reading a story told through multiple perspectives, it can be hard to tell each character apart sometimes.
It’s clear they brainstorm as a trio as the chapters flow together seamlessly. These three authors, Willig, White, and Williams, all work well together and each has their own unique writing style. Spies, theft, love, and secrets from the past all follow Caroline and Tess on the Lusitania. On the voyage, they both find themselves drawn into circumstances beyond their control. They are very different women.Ĭaroline is a former socialite traveling first class with her husband, while Tess is a thief traveling second class, looking to turn her life around. The other two plots follow two women on the Lusitania on that fateful voyage, Caroline Telfair Hochstetter and Tess Fairweather. RELATED: The Forgotten Room: A Bittersweet Romantic Mystery If she’s lucky, she might also find love. With the help of a cranky but attractive descendant of one of the survivors, Sarah finds the story of a lifetime. Sarah’s family has a direct connection to the wreck, as her great-grandfather died when the ship sank. She finds herself drawn to the story of the RMS Lusitania shipwreck, a passenger liner sunk by a German U-boat in 1915. One of the three plot-lines in The Glass Ocean book takes place in 2013 and follows Sarah Blake, a struggling writer trying to write her next bestseller.
