A mesmerising literary debut interwoven with mythology and legend, from an award-winning new talent
When Scottie realises she will never become a mother, she leaves her life behind and flees to the storm-lashed Hebridean archipelago of St Hia.
The islands are dangerous. Many have been lost to the ferocious tides known as the Hollow Sea, and folklore tells that St Hia was once the home of a witch named Thordis - outcast for her inability to bear children, and driven to a terrible act . . .
The islanders warn newcomers against examining the past, but Scottie can't look away from Thordis' story. Could St Hia's history hold the key to Scottie's future?
