'Weird and wild and wonderfully unsettling... Dive in for just a
moment and you'll emerge gasping and haunted' Celeste Ng,
bestselling author of Little Fires Everywhere It's been sixteen
years since Gretel last saw her mother, half a lifetime to forget
her childhood on the canals. But a phone call will soon reunite
them, and bring those wild years flooding back: the secret language
that Gretel and her mother invented; the strange boy, Marcus,
living on the boat that final winter; the creature said to be
underwater, swimming ever closer. In the end there will be nothing
for Gretel to do but to wade deeper into their past, where family
secrets and aged prophesies will all come tragically alive again.
'As readable as it is dazzling, full of unsettling twists and dark
revelations' Observer **SHORTLISTED FOR THE MAN BOOKER PRIZE 2018**
