Aprašymas
'The heart of this novel is a place described so finely and beguilingly that everyone who reads it will want to go to Ellan Bride.'
Helen Dunmore, The Times
May, 1831. On a tiny island off the Isle of Man, the lighthouse is manned by an unusual family. Lucy and Diya are husbandless, with three children between them, and life is already harsh. Now their very livelihood is under threat, for Scottish engineer Robert Stevenson is modernising the nation's lighthouses. When two surveyors arrive to
assess the Ellan Bride light, tension escalates to danger point . . .
'Elphinstone's sense of place, time and atmosphere makes for eerie reading and gives the novel an impressive authenticity . . . breathtaking.'
Scotland on Sunday
'Hugely inventive . . . Exuberantly clever.'
Independent
'A rattling good read.'
Sunday Herald
