Description
In a fishing trip gone wrong, Henry finds himself on a beach in a storm. With no memory of how he got there, and no sign of anyone around, he must figure out how to get back to his family.
Madeline worries for her husband’s safety and for her granddaughter’s wellbeing as Lacey’s world crumbles around her.
Elen is a hardworking detective put on Henry’s case, and is determined to answer the question: what exactly happened on that fishing trip?
Almost crime, almost mystery, Ambergris is both unsettling and comfortable. Briony Collins writes simply and beautifully through events that destroy a family in front of your eyes.
Alys Conran says ‘Intricately woven and mysterious, Ambergris is achingly compelling.’
Deann Bell says ‘I love it. So twisted. [Her] use of poetic description to land the reader in both real and imagined spaces is beautiful. It really felt like a family tapestry of love coming unwound.’
