The Displaced

The Displaced

Author(s): Frieda Watt

Location(s): Louisbourg

Genre(s): Historical, Fiction

Era(s): 18th Century

Torn between clashing empires and contentious families, Marie Levesque fights to find a place in the unforgiving frontier of Canada. As a young woman, her life is just beginning. Her friendship with Pierre promises of something more. But the doomed fortress of Louisbourg is caught in the cross-hairs of the British navy, who promise not only to annihilate them but their very way of life. As empires collide, Marie and Pierre are catapulted into a world they do not understand—a world of spies, treason, and revenge. Not only must they fight to survive the war, but they must also fight to stay together despite the forces that threaten to tear them apart forever. This beautifully written, epic work of historical literary fiction, with the same feel as Outlander, is a must-read for any historical fiction lover. The Displaced: Fall of a Fortress tells the story of ordinary people as they try to survive the crumbling French rule of Canada.
