Publisher's Summary

When an unsuspecting bride gets into a boat one stormy June day in 1912, Thaddeus takes her far out to sea to the end of Popplestone Isle. There, harbor folk welcome Mildred with hopeful joy, but she discovers the tiny fishing village is headed for a most dreadful end. In her efforts to save their treasured island home, Mildred must risk losing everything she holds dear.

On Harbor’s Edge is the first in a series of dramatic tales from 1912 to the present, set against the backdrop of magnificent coastal scenery. While the Popplestone Isle story is fiction, some of the hurdles Mildred faced over a hundred years ago still challenge those on small islands today.

A popular book club title, On Harbor's Edge addresses social issues with historical perspective in addition to being an entertaining book for the beach.

Critic Reviews

"This is a thought provoking tale complete with suspense and tension, as well as humor, kindness, and warmth." (Morning Sentinel & Kennebec Journal)

"Captivating! On Harbor’s Edge hooked me line and sinker with fascinating characters and dramatic plots brilliantly layered in Maine island life a hundred years ago.” (Linda Greenlaw, award-winning author)

'Kate captures the workings of an island here in one fantastic novel. On Harbor’s Edge gives us real Maine on the page: men and women working hard on the sea and finding big love with all its complications, while Hotchkiss shows us the extraordinary life force needed to keep an island village alive. On Harbor’s Edge brings us to Maine and lets us live on the island with her characters in a way that no other Maine story I’ve read has done.” (Susan Conley, award-winning author)
