Book Club: WILD DARK SHORE [by Charlotte McConaghy]
Fiction — A family on a remote island. A mysterious woman washed ashore. Dominic Salt and his three children are caretakers of Shearwater, a tiny island not far from Antarctica. Home to the world’s largest seed bank, Shearwater was once full of researchers, but with sea levels rising, the Salts are now its final inhabitants. Isolation has taken its toll on the Salts, but as they nurse the
woman, Rowan, back to strength, it begins to feel like she might just be what they need. As the storms on Shearwater gather force, they all must decide if they can trust each other enough to protect the precious seeds in their care before it’s too late―and if they can finally put the tragedies of the past behind them to create something new, together.- Jamie Davidson
