In den schottischen Kohlengruben herrscht das Gesetz der Sklaverei. Doch Mack McAsh, ein junger Bergmann, träumt davon, frei zu sein. Er flieht nach London - und gerät in eine andere Form von Knechtschaft: Als Aufrührer verurteilt, wird er in Ketten nach Virginia verschifft.

"Mit seiner Detailgenauigkeit und seiner äusserst lebendigen Sprache nimmt einen der Autor mit in die bedrückende Atmosphäre der Grubenarbeit vor 200 Jahren." Die Welt "Wie schon in seinen beiden Romanen Die Säulen der Erde und Die Pfeiler der Macht entwirft Ken Follett in Die Brücken der Freiheit ein fesselndes historisches Panorama." Kölner-Stadt-Anzeiger."
  • "A story of adventure and passion, A Place Called Freedom mirrors the intimate desires of the individual heart with the dramatic events of a world in ferment. London trembles on the edge of chaos; the American colonies prepare to defy the British monarchy; a young woman bursts the bonds of a loveless marriage; and a proud man risks everything to grasp at a tantalizing dream of liberty. With its vivid, fascinating portrayal of the colorful streets of London and the endless landscapes of the New World, plus an unforgettable cast of heroes and villains, lovers and rebels, hypocrites and hell-raisers and whores, A Place Called Freedom is a magnificent epic of love, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."

  • "It begins in the Scottish Highlands, in the infernal coal mines of the Jamisson family, where twenty-one-year-old Mack McAsh spends most of his waking hours. Bound to his employer for life and threatened always by firedamp, the explosive gas that may ignite at any moment and bury him, Mack burns with the desire to escape. He finds an unlikely ally in Lizzie Hallim, the beautiful, willful, young aristocratic woman who yearns to get away from her own kind of hell."
