Book details
Brilliant, beautiful...as unpredictable as the sea itself. --Philip Reeve, author of The Mortal Engines
Harshly beautiful, and stark with near-despair, this is an unsettling, deeply original historical novel. --The Guardian
This is the best book I've read this year. Extraordinary...--Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author of The Girl of Ink and Stars
Everything Geraldine McCaughrean touches turns to gold. --The Sunday Times
One of the most immersive and compelling works of fiction we've read in quite some time... Suffice it to say that the novel is rounded off with consummate skill and the result is an outstanding example of the storyteller's art. --Undiscovered Scotland
