“There is real life in Sarah Anne Johnson’s new book, and genuine family drama too, all grounded in an authoritative evocation of old Cape Cod’s waterways, marshes, and waterfront towns. The Last Sailor is memorable, clearly seen, and deeply felt.” - Jon Clinch, author of MARLEY and FINN
”[T]he narrative benefits from rich regional and period details.” - Publishers Weekly
“Explores the profoundly personal ways we deal with - or avoid - mourning, and the struggles we go through as we piece our lives and relationships back together after sudden and tragic loss.” - Provincetown Independent
