"The starlings dance in mesmerising patterns. In and out they fold.
Up and down. Below them a Victorian pier has stood the test of
time, carrying each generation over a cold and relentless sea."
This heartfelt historical drama follows the lives of five strangers
over the course of 150 years. Each of them stop to look at the
murmuration of starlings in the very same spot on the pier of a
Victorian seaside town, and from that moment on their distinct
stories are united by a common thread: a terrible mistake that
keeps on repeating with every generation. Only one mysterious man
has the power to stop history repeating itself again by solving a
mystery as old as the pier itself. A sweeping narrative filled with
intrigue and magical realism, Murmuration explores the shifting
patterns of fate. Is there order in the universe? And if not, how
can our souls ever truly move on? A perfect summer read for fans of
Cloud Atlas. `Murmuration is a magically woven tale of human
connectivity, frailty, and the hold the past can have over the
present. My promise of just one more page was constantly broken,'
Laura Parish, Novel Kicks `This is simply a splendid book. Full of
convincing and realistic characters, their various voices convey
not only their personalities but also a sense of time... Those who
enjoy historical novels for their understanding of people of the
past will find much to savour in this book,' Julie Barham `I have
fallen in love with this book and its hypnotic and mesmerizing
stories... I just didn't want it to end and already know that I
will come back to it time and time again. This is a tremendous work
of art, as Robert Lock creates the most vivid images with his
beautiful descriptions in every single sentence. At times it is
simple and direct and at others more exquisite and flamboyant. It
is absolute perfection!' Sue Hampson `Murmuration is a deeply
compelling insight into the human condition. A stark and honest
debut,' Mari Ellis Dunning
