-Vivid, extremely tense, unnervingly unputdownable. This is a superb, powerful read.- Independent
-Undoubtedly Hawkins- best novel yet- Observer
For twelve hours each day, the Scottish island of Eris is cut off from the mainland. No way in. No way out.
The island-s only house was once home to Vanessa, whose notoriously unfaithful husband disappeared twenty years ago. But Vanessa is dead now, and her friend Grace has moved in. A solitary creature of the tides, content in her own isolation, guarding the island-s past. . .
Meanwhile, in London, a stranger makes a small but terrible discovery - a human bone. And in that moment Grace-s precious solitude is threatened.
How will she respond? Can she be trusted?
The secrets of Eris Island won-t stay buried for long. And suddenly this is a very dangerous time to be alone . . .
