MILLWARD HARGRAVE THE BATTLE ON THE INSIDE IS JUST THE BEGINNING
Dani hasn't had an easy life. She's made some bad choices and now
she's paying the ultimate price; prison. With her young daughter
Bethany, growing up in foster care, Dani is determined to be free
and reunited with her. There's only one problem; Dani can't stay
out of trouble. Dani's new cellmate Martha is quiet and unassuming.
There's something about her that doesn't add up. When Martha offers
Dani one last chance at freedom, she doesn't hesitate. Everything
she wants is on the outside, but Dani is stuck on the inside. Is it
possible to break out when everyone is trying to keep you in . . .
Jenny's world is falling apart. Ravenspurn is falling into the sea.
The little town is perched on a remote cliff, and every day,
frequent storms are claiming more land, more homes and more
livelihoods. The news of her father's sudden death forces Jenny's
return to her hometown from London, but the ravaged landscape now
feels like a foreign place. In a small town like Ravenspurn, the
rifts between her and those she once knew are so deep they threaten
to swallow her whole. Jenny is now responsible for her late
father's small pub, and its staff, Alex and Si - her former best
friend and ex-boyfriend, now a couple. She's stuck living in her
childhood bedroom, orbiting awkwardly around her distant mother.
Her boyfriend is still in London, separated by more than just
distance. Each day that Jenny remains, the town seems to shrink
around her, but she knows soon the pandemic will be over. Soon,
she'll be able to return to her real life. But the secrets and the
unspoken regrets that have come to haunt Jenny are not so easily
escaped. In the claustrophobia of Ravenspurn, where can she turn? A
timely story of a home pushed to the breaking point; Things We Lose
in Waves explores how you keep afloat when your world is falling
away from underneath your feet.
