Publisher's Synopsis
In a chilling blend of folk horror and twisting suspense, this modern masterpiece depicts isolation and dread within a small island community.
And the water shall call them home.
On the edge of the North Atlantic lies a remote Scottish isle. The residents are a mix of those born and bred on the land and newcomers seeking a slower, quieter way of life, away from the modern world. But all have their own secrets, some much darker than others. And when a strange waterborne blight begins to infect them all, those secrets come to light.
Ferry service fails. Phone towers go down. And slowly, inconvenience transforms into nightmarish ordeal- and the outwardly harmonious fabric of the community is irreversibly torn apart.
