Аннотация

"An extraordinary and heart-rending book about good people, tragic decisions, and the beauty found in each of them." - Markus Zusak

This is a story of right and wrong, and how sometimes they look the same.
1926. Tom Sherbourne is a young lighthouse keeper on a remote island off Western Australia. The only inhabitants of Janus Rock, he and his wife Isabel live a quiet life, cocooned from the rest of the world. One April morning a boat washes ashore carrying a dead man and a crying infant - and the path of the couple's lives hits an unthinkable crossroads. Only years later do they discover the devastating consequences of the decision they make that day - as the baby's real story unfolds ...
M L Stedman's debut is a mesmerising novel of love and loss and unbearable choices.
