This is described as “The Light Between Oceans meets The Snow Child “ and that is a perfect description of the overall feel of this poignant book. Set in a small Scottish fishing village in the early 1900s, it is a story of hardship, secrets, grief, guilt and love. I enjoyed both the characters and the setting but especially the depiction of how secrets & misunderstandings can destroy lives. Thank to Edelweiss+ for the digital ARC. 4/5 stars
