       atmosphere of deep emotions that draw the listener in 
       close...fully realized characters who have relatable 
       issues and emotions take the forefront." -- AudioFile 
       Magazine From beloved bestselling author Ursula Hegi, a 
       new novel about three mothers, set on the shores of the 
       Nordsee, perfect for fans of Water for Elephants and The 
       Light Between Oceans. In the summer of 1878, the Ludwig 
       Zirkus arrives on Nordstrand in Germany, to the delight of
       the island's people. But after the show, a Hundred-Year 
       Wave roars from the Nordsee and claims three young 
       children. Three mothers are on the beach when it happens: 
       Lotte, whose children are lost; Sabine, a Zirkus 
       seamstress with her grown daughter; and Tilli, just a girl
       herself, who will give birth later that day at St. 
       Margaret's Home for Pregnant Girls. After the tragedy, 
       Lotte's husband escapes with the Zirkus, while she loses 
       the will to care for their surviving son. Tilli steps in, 
       bonding with him in a way she isn't allowed to with her 
       own baby, taken away at birth. Sabine, struggling to keep 
       her childlike daughter safe in the world, forms a 
       complicated friendship with Lotte. But the mothers' 
       fragile trio is threatened when Lotte and her husband 
       hatch a dangerous plan to reunite their family, and Tilli 
       and Sabine must try to find a way to pull them back to 
       reality. As full of joy and beauty as it is of pain, and 
       told with the luminous power that has made Ursula Hegi a 
       beloved bestselling author for decades, The Patron Saint 
       of Pregnant Girls is a shining testament to the ways in 
       which women hold each other up in the most unexpected of 
       circumstances.  A Macmillan Audio production from Flatiron
       Books "Mesmerizing...Hegi's command of the plot and 
       ability to render poignant characters create a 
       satisfyingly emotional story. Hegi's fans and devotees of 
       literary fiction will treasure this." -- Publishers Weekly
       "A lyrical meditation on motherhood and mourning." -- 
       Boston Globe
