The Visitor by Stansfield Katherine
In The Visitor, the sea's ghosts are stirring. The past can be more alive than the present... -- Cyngor Llyfrau Cymru
Cornwall1880. Pearl, Jack and Nicholas play among the fishing boats of Skommow Bay, not understanding the undercurrents beneath their games. As they grow older, the choices they make shape the pattern of their lives. 1936 and everything has changed. The fish have stopped coming and the Pilchard Palace is abandoned. Pearl, exiled in favour of holidaymakers, turns to the memory of her great love, and her greatest loss. She’s waiting for her own visitor. Will he come for her? “Katherine Stansfield's debut is a poignant and intricately crafted story of love and loss, picturesquely and memorably set on the sea-coast of Cornwall.” Stevie Davies “An evocative record of a lost age... unmistakably heartfelt.” Daily Mail -- Publisher: Parthian Books
