SHORTLISTED FOR THE GUARDIAN FIRST BOOK AWARD 2015 SHORTLISTED FOR
THE SUNDAY TIMES/PETERS FRASER & DUNLOP YOUNG WRITER OF THE
YEAR AWARD LONGLISTED FOR THE BAILEYS WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION
2015 The Shore. A collection of small islands sticking out from the
coast of Virginia into the Atlantic Ocean that has been home to
generations of fierce and resilient women. Sanctuary to some but
nightmare to others, it's a place they've inhabited, fled, and
returned to for hundreds of years. The women are united by both
small miracles and miseries: from a brave girl's determination to
protect her younger sister as methamphetamine ravages their family,
to a lesson in summoning storm clouds to help end a drought. Their
interconnected stories form a deeply affecting legacy of two island
families bound not just by blood, but by fate.
