Buxton Books is honored to host USA Today bestselling author Heather Webb for the publication of her new novel, The Next Ship Home. This is a free, in-store event. Program begins at 6pm!

ABOUT THE BOOK:

Inspired by true events and for fans of Kristina McMorris and Hazel Gaynor, The Next Ship Home holds up a mirror to our own times, deftly questioning America’s history of prejudice and exclusion while also reminding us of our citizens’ singular determination. This is a novel of the dark secrets of Ellis Island, when entry to “the land of the free” promised a better life but often delivered something drastically different, and when immigrant strength and female friendship found ways to triumph even on the darkest days.
