*** 'In the January dark, a young man walks slowly into the sea. He
can't see where he is going, but he knows the island is calling...'
Mary and Patrick's dream was to live in London, have 2.4 children,
the nice house, the successful jobs. But life had other plans, and
in one traumatic year that all came crashing down. Bruised and
battered, Mary finds herself pulled towards Cornwall and dreams of
St George's Island, where she spent halcyon childhood summers. So,
when an opportunity arises to become tenants if they renovate the
old Island House, they grab it with both hands. Life on the island
is hard, especially in winter, the sea and weather, unforgiving.
But the rugged natural beauty, the friendly ghosts of previous
inhabitants, and the beautiful isolation of island life bring hope
and purpose, as they discover a resilience they never knew they
had.
