Set against the turbulent backdrop of war and the unforgiving sea, Now I Lay Me Down to Keep weaves together two gripping tales of duty, survival, and the unbreakable bonds of family. In 1857, the USS East Manhattan sails from Panama to New York, carrying gold miners, their fortunes, and a secret cargo under the watchful eye of Captain Lewis Sunter, while young officer cadet, Matthew Taget, uncovers unsettling truths aboard ship, truths that will echo as far as the northern reaches of Sweden.
A century later in the 1940s, Florida, seven-year-old, Joel Taget, learns a harsh lesson about trust from his stoic father, Bill, as the shadow of World War II looms over their small town. From the treacherous waters of the Caribbean to the quiet struggles of a post-war family, this sweeping saga explores the sacrifices made for love, loyalty, and legacy, where every decision could mean life or death, and the past echoes relentlessly into the future.

Noella Bickham was born in December 1941, in Rhode Island, USA, but grew up in Norwich, Connecticut. She attended the University of Connecticut, then moved to Boston, Massachusetts, where she worked for an insurance company. Because of racial prejudice, she and her African- American husband left the USA in 1963, eventually ending up in Sweden. There, she worked as a Swedish-English translator in her own company (Language Makers, Noella Bickham). Then, in 1997, she became the managing editor of the International Journal of Social Welfare, retiring in 2020.
