Description

Isla Wintergreen has inherited her grandfather's cottage on the Isle of Skye, and with it, an opportunity to escape her purposeless life. As she settles into the island community, she uncovers more about the family she never really knew - from her estranged father to her reclusive grandfather, and intelligent but oppressed great-grandmother. Through the lives of four generations connected by their link to water, this novel masterfully explores family relationships and generational inheritance. Isla's mother Cathy reflects on her own past as they both hope to find new freedom - a question that has haunted them for years: can family patterns ever be broken? Dancing in the Shallows is a poignant exploration of family ties, identity, and the power of water to shape lives.
