Welcome to the Sunshine Island - where the beaches are golden, the
lifestyle is perfect and anything is possible. Piper Le Brocq is
happily single after the disastrous ending of her engagement
eighteen months before. The only man in her life is Jax, her best
friend and cousin, who spends his life teaching locals how to
forage and taking tourists on boat trips around the island. Her
days are filled with helping out at her mother's guest house and
selling her glass mosaics at The Cabbage Patch emporium in Trinity.
Piper loves living on the Sunshine Island, where the neighbours
look out for each other and visitors are welcome. So, when handsome
guest Alex Cooper arrives at the guest house to check up on his
grandfather, she welcomes him to the sunny island. And when he
needs help after his grandfather is injured, she's quick to get
involved. Yet, the more she gets to know Alex the more mysterious
he seems, and Alex isn't the only one keeping secrets from her.
What readers are saying about Georgina Troy: 'A gorgeous beachside
setting, divine ice-cream sundaes, and a scorching summer love

Prosecco!' Kirsty Greenwood 'A wonderfully warm and sweet summer

Great White sharks, attracted by an offshore seal colony, have brought success to the adjacent fishing village of Gansbaai along the southern African coast. A flourishing shark cage diving industry has sprung up, bringing jobs and money, and so benefiting almost the entire community. Tourists come from far and near to experience the thrill of a real-life brush with the legendary ‘Jaws’. Shark Town, as it has become known, is booming. Then one day, the sharks disappear. Slowly at first, but with gathering momentum, the word spreads: cage diving off Gansbaai can no longer promise the thrill of an encounter. The crowds thin, the boats remain at their moorings, and the once bustling community waits as their livelihoods tail off. Entrepreneurs and scientists alike are baffled.
But it’s not long before shark carcasses start washing up on the beaches. These, together with some coincidental sightings of another apex predator in the vicinity, are the first leads to the possible causes and culprits. Against the clamour and thrill of the cage-diving season in full swing, Richard Peirce visits the unfolding drama and explores what’s behind these strange events.
