Book Description
A picture book meditation on curiosity, wonder, and finding one’s way In this lyrical picture book, readers follow one boy through his life as he returns to the seashore beside his home. The boy likes to think, and his thoughts turn into questions. He brings these questions to the sea. At times, he thinks he can hear the sea whisper to him: Dream. Love. Be. So he does. He dreams—a young boy imagining all that he might do. He loves—a teenager, reaching out from a lonely place to make friends. He allows himself to just be—now grown, sharing the seashore with his daughter. A celebration of quiet curiosity, The Boy and the Sea invites readers to ask questions and live their way into the answers.

Book Description
A troubled mind, a creeping obsession and a sea that's full of secrets. When lonely Grace Ferguson meets fellow student Lir Murphy in her marine biology lab the last thing she expects is to fall into a deep, startling obsession with the young man. Lir is strange, quiet and filled with a love for the sea that nobody else understands. When he surprises Grace by reciprocating her feelings she's convinced she's found her oddball happily ever after. But when a series of grisly attacks plague the west coast of Scotland Grace is forced to consider that her marine-loving paramour is more than simply 'strange'. As Lir's behaviour grows more erratic, and his relationship with Grace evolves into something dark and dangerous, Grace must figure out who or what Lir is...or risk losing herself in the process. From the best-selling author of Prince of Foxes comes a brand new Gothic romance for lovers of all things monstrous, tragic and villainous. Pick up your copy of The Boy from the Sea today!

Book Description
Raymond is an eleven-year-old boy who is living by a beautiful beach with his widowed mother, who surrounds him with love but can barely afford to feed him. He misses not having a father, especially during the holiday season. He has come to the conclusion that Santa stops by the homes of kids who have a dad. How he comes to share in the spoils of the gifts giving season is a riveting plot; this is a different kind of Christmas story. The human spirit is the same all over; young and old, rich and poor, we all strive for family bonds.

Book Description
From the author of Rain and Featherstone comes a story of a sun-drenched, sea-soaked day which changes a boy's life forever. At the start of a summer's day, Ward is waiting on the beach. His friend, Alex, wants him to come to a party at Alison's where there'll be girls and drinks and the possibilities of fun. But Ward is shy and self conscious and struggling to move from under the weight of his powerful father. He'd rather wait on the beach for the surf to come up. As the the sun moves towards its highest point and the girls' laughter carries along the wind towards Ward, the tide changes and Ward is faced with a dramatic event that will change his life forever. This beautiful and intense coming-of-age story captures perfectly the discomforts and challenges of being fifteen years old with the world stretching out in front of you. Sensual, heady, as though dazed by the heat of her pages, Gunn slowly unfolds a tale of danger and sexuality, of mothers and sons and the fathers who rule them, and of the sea.
