Shortlisted for the Fogarty Literary Award, this is a confronting and compelling read from the very first chapter.

Both grappling with grief and loss, Briony and Ren are brought together in their hometown, where Ren has returned to care for his dying father and Briony remains hopeful of finding her missing sister, Sarah. Meanwhile, Sarah and her best friend Aria are hopelessly trapped on a remote island off the coast, and nobody has a clue where they have gone. This tightly written, atmospheric novel captures the natural environment and explores the depths of human emotion.
