Description

The Island Swimmer is a captivating debut novel about the importance of being true to yourself. When Evie's father falls ill, she returns to the family home on Orkney, a place she left as a teenager, and is drawn into a world of cold-water swimmers who find calmness beneath the waves.

As Evie navigates her complicated past and present, she must confront the mistakes that have haunted her for years. With the help of her old friend Freya and the swimmers, Evie begins to unlock a treasure of truths that will reverberate through the community and shake her family to its core.

Written by broadcaster Lorraine Kelly, inspired by her passion for the Orkney islands and its people, this novel is a powerful exploration of identity, family, and the healing power of nature.
