Escape to the ocean this summer with the entrancing, unforgettable winner of the Costa Book of the Year. Near the island of Black Conch, a fisherman sings to himself while waiting for a catch.

Yet as their love grows, they discover that the world around them is changing - and they cannot escape the curse for ever . . . “A bittersweet love story . . .
