Description
Wrecker by Noel O'Reilly is a gripping and beautifully written debut novel that explores the dark side of Cornwall. In this remote village, shipwrecks are a part of life, bringing both tragedy and treasure. When Mary Blight rescues a man from the sea, she sets in motion a chain of events that will test her courage and challenge the superstitions of those around her. As Gideon Stone, a Methodist minister, arrives in the village to build a chapel on the hill, he is met with resistance from the villagers who cling to their pagan beliefs. As Mary and Gideon find themselves drawn together, jealousy and suspicion simmer just below the surface. But Gideon has demons of his own to face, and soon Mary's enemies are plotting against her. This is a story of love, injustice, superstition, and salvation, set against Cornwall's dark past. With its unique blend of historical and mythological elements, Wrecker is a compelling read that will keep you turning the pages until the very end.
