Summary
From the critically acclaimed, bestselling author of Weyward Sisters separated by centuries. Voices that can't be drowned out.
'Evocative and compelling … As hopeful as it is heart-wrenching' LUCY CLARKE, author of THE HIKE and ONE OF THE GIRLS
'A profoundly moving and rich historical story wrapped up in a contemporary murder mystery’ ROSIE ANDREWS, author of THE LEVIATHAN
'Enthralling … It made me cry on a railway platform’ BRIDGET COLLINS, author of THE BINDING and THE SILENCE FACTORY
Lucy is running from what she’s done – and what someone did to her.
There’s only one person who might understand: her sister Jess. But when Lucy arrives at her sister’s desolate cliff-top house, Jess is gone.
Lucy is now alone, in a strange town steeped in rumour. Stories of men disappearing without a trace. A foundling discovered in a sea-swept cave. And women’s voices murmuring on the waves…
As Lucy searches for her sister, those voices get ever louder. They tell of two sisters, two centuries ago, bound and transported across the world. A world where men always get their way. A world that is at once distant, and achingly familiar.
Are these voices luring Lucy closer to her sister? Or will the secrets of the past pull them both under?
Critic reviews
'The Sirens teems with family secrets, eerie dreams, and deep transformation. A compelling tale of sisterhood, sacrifice, and the sea, this is a beautiful follow-up to Hart's sensational debut, Weyward. The Sirens will sweep you away' SARAH PENNER, author of The Lost Apothecary
'A mythical journey through time, evoking ancient tales of the sea and female bonds that are tested but never broken. The Sirens surprises and delights and allows us as readers to imagine a world where myth and reality collide. A beautiful and propulsive story full of love and intrigue. A remarkable read' AMANDA PETERS, author of The Berry Pickers
