Sunny waited until her mother was asleep before she went back for the monster . . .
All her life, Sunny has known three truths about the creatures that prowl the seas off her tiny coastal town. They are dangerous. They are violent. They are monsters.
But when a chance encounter leads to an unexpected connection, Sunny discovers just how wrong she has been. The monster she meets – Mo – is intelligent, gentle, and searching for his lost brother.
Sunny desperately wants to help, and to keep her new friend a secret. But other people are keeping secrets too. And as hunger grips the town, new truths will emerge about the real monsters in Seawaren . . .
An astonishing debut novel about friendship, trust and survival, perfect for fans of Skellig.
Review A powerful tale of compassion and understanding between a girl and a so-called monster. Sunny is the heroine who inspires us all to build a gentler, kinder world. ― Hannah Gold, author of The Last Bear
A richly drawn study of empathy, curiosity and kindness – I loved every minute of it. ― Beth Lincoln, New York Times bestselling author of The Swifts
A spectacular debut, full of adventure and bravery. Sunny and Mo have stolen a piece of my heart. ― Clare Harlow, author of Tidemagic: The Many Faces of Ista Flit
A heart-warming tale packed with mystery, magic and monsters. Tender and thought-provoking. ― Abi Elphinstone, author of Sky Song and Saving Neverland
A superb new voice in children’s fiction, Orwin’s writing is beautifully balanced between clarity, heart-tugging emotion and grippingly tense action. Sunny is a memorable, loveable character, finding her way in an atmospheric post-apocalyptic world that might just be saved by her sensitivity and courage. ― Liz Flanagan, author of Dragon Daughter About the Author Rebecca Orwin (Author)
