Wild Dark Shore by Charlotte McConaghy

Allison

“I loved this book so much, it immediately skyrocketed to my all-time Top 5. It will keep you guessing but also speaks to your heart and the world we’re living in, while being totally separate from the world we’re living in.”

Maren Ellingboe King

“A beautiful, devastating novel. Her writing is so spare and stunning—a portrait of a family, an island, climate crisis, and a mystery all rolled into one.”

Madeline Tolle

“This is what I call a "One-Day Book," a book that's so good and engrossing, once you start it, you can't do anything but sit and read until you finish it. This book combines survival, family lore and drama, coming of age, science, and scientific ethics, which all sounds totally at odds with one another, but somehow works perfectly. This book will stick with you.”
