Historical Fiction
Generations of the Findlay family have been haunted by a dangerous luring melody and an insatiable longing for the sea. It's 1923 and Isla Findlay lives with her parents on the edge of the ocean in Tasmania, in a rambling mansion. When Isla discovers her estranged aunt is finally coming home, long-repressed memories of the selkie stories of her childhood start to resurface, along with disturbing dreams of seals and an eerie song that Isla starts to hear even in her waking hours. As the line between what's real and imagined starts to blur, Isla and her aunt and mother must reckon with long-held secrets and ghosts who have not been properly laid to rest.
