Description
A captivating tale of wild coastlines and the secrets that lie beneath. In "How Saints Die", Carmen Marcus weaves a compelling narrative of a young girl's journey to self-discovery, set against the rugged backdrop of 1980s North Yorkshire. Ten years old and irrepressibly curious, Ellie lives with her fisherman father on the wild coast, where whispers of her mother's breakdown are all that's spoken of. As she steers by the light of her dad's sea-myths and her own fierce spirit, Ellie begins to uncover the truth about herself and her place in the world. By the time the first snowdrops show, Ellie's innocence has been shed, but at great cost. This is a story of wild beauty, of the power of curiosity and the resilience of the human spirit.
