The Reader's Retreat: The Night Ship by Jess Kidd

In 1629, young Mayken boards the Batavia, sailing to the East Indies, grieving her mother and oblivious to the lurking dangers onboard. A shipwreck on the coast of Western Australia plunges her into a nightmare of survival. Centuries later, nine-year-old Gil grapples with his own grief as he arrives on the same island, haunted by whispers of the Batavia's dark history. As he uncovers the shipwreck's secrets, Gil's and Mayken's stories intertwine across time in this exploration of resilience, loss, and the enduring power of the past. Historical fiction readers will be captivated by this dual-timeline narrative filled with atmospheric prose, compelling characters, and an intriguing mystery.

Embrace a haunting prophecy of the high seas with The Reader's Retreat, a curated experience designed for the perfect solo night in. This bundle connects the "Shadows & Lace" of history with a full sensory experience. Brew a steaming cup of the celestial Creme Brulée Earl Grey with Jasmine & Vanilla using your silver-toned Heart-Shaped Tea Infuser, and settle into the mystery of the Batavia. As the past and present begin to blur, use the Misty Harbor Annotation Tabs—featuring deep, stormy navy and muted slate greys—to track every clue and echo of the past. The pale, sea-glass tones of the palette mirror the misty horizons of the story, allowing you to mark atmospheric passages while maintaining a beautiful, immersive retreat.
