Description
London 1893. Cora Seaborne steps into her new life as a widow with relief and sadness as she leaves town for Essex. She hopes that fresh air and open space will provide refuge from the past. Upon arrival, rumours of the mythical Essex Serpent reach them, said to roam the marshes claiming lives. As an amateur naturalist, Cora is enthralled by the prospect of a yet-undiscovered species. Her search for the truth leads her to William Ransome, Aldwinter's vicar, who shares her skepticism about the local legends. As they work together to uncover the facts, Cora and Will find themselves drawn into an intense relationship, one that surprises them both with its depth and complexity. This is a story of love in all its forms, and the ways it can shape our lives.
