Helen is a retired teacher living on the Irish coast. She enjoys the peace and quiet - despite the burden of Margaret, her unpleasant sister. Margaret arrived three years ago for a short holiday, but somehow managed to stay and worm her way into Helen's life.
One day, Helen sees a man struggling in the sea and decides to investigate. She doesn't quite know what it is, but something about it feels very strange...
Customer Reviews
Captivating
An excellent story set in rural Ireland.
People watching leads to some amateur sleuthing, and then danger…
Graham Norton has a total gift for storytelling. His characters are so real, displaying all facets of humanity.
His writing style is like having a lovely conversation, just enough detail to paint the picture, and not too much that you forget the story.
Utterly captivating.
Can’t wait for his next book….
OK
