The Mermaid's Purse

Összefoglaló

The deepest secrets drive the darkest currents; strange tides are acting upon Cass Bainbidge, impelling her to leave London and the comfortable home she shares with her partner to take up a lecturing job on south coast. But Brington isn't the natural choice for a woman with a long-standing fear of the sea. And dealing with some of the students on her course -surly, difficult or just plain odd-against the backdrop of a series od attacks on campus, means Cass is soon finding elements of her new life distinctly disturbing. Painful memories begin closing in on Cass; the specter of a secret that finally tore apart her damaged childhood and changed her life for ever. And soon the growing sense she is being stalked builds the whispering steam of disquiet into a wave that threatens to engfull her.
