Where two rivers meet the sea on a lonely stretch of English coast stands the house called Tandy’s Castle, and there a scholar who has turned his back on the world raises his daughter Damaris. Her girlhood among the tides and sandbars is invaded by a young gentleman of happy disposition, a critic in corduroy and a past that lays an ominous hand on the present.
A late, richly atmospheric novel by Charles Kingsley’s daughter, writing as Lucas Malet, for readers who love brooding coastal settings. Download the free EPUB.
