Description
Hy Brasil: A Novel by Margaret Elphinstone
A travel writer is sent to investigate the existence of Hy Brasil, a mythical island in the Atlantic whose reality has been disputed until recent times. Her journey takes her through piracy, lost treasure, modern-day smuggling and intrigue, as she uncovers the truth behind this enigmatic location.
As she writes about her experiences, Elphinstone weaves together elements of adventure and thriller genres, drawing inspiration from literary classics such as The Tempest and Treasure Island. Her account is a gripping tale of love, loss and discovery, presented in Sidony Redruth's notes for her book.
