Her older sister, Moira, comes to her in the evenings, sits beside her in a green-walled hospital room. Here, Moira confesses. She admits to her childhood selfishness which deeply hurt her family and to the self-imposed exile from the dramatic Welsh coast that had dominated and captivated her childhood; to her savagery at boarding school; to the wild, bitter and destructive heart that she carried into her adult life. Moira knows this: that she's been a poor daughter, and a deceptive wife. But it is as Amy lies half-dying that she sees the real truth: she's been a cruel sister, and it is this cruelty that has led them both here, to this hospital bed.  A novel about trust, loss and loneliness, 'Oystercatchers' is a love story with a profound darkness at its core.","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44424746860763,"sku":"9780007250448-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/products\/9780007250448-us-300.jpg?v=1699526426","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9780007250448-secondhand-oystercatchers","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
