- Summary:
- This novel tells the story of the Lost Colony through the voices of two pioneering women who sail from London to the wild American shore in 1587. This was the first English attempt to establish a settlement in the New World. It failed; the colonists vanished. THE RISING SHORE-ROANOKE brings to life the courageous women who joined this venture.
