‘Magical, weird, wonderful, dark unique Northern brilliance’
MATT HAIG
‘… there was so much about this book to love; the decrepit seaside setting, the terrible weather, the gritty realism, the magic, the freshness, the strangeness, and the way the story and the characters haunted me afterwards. I felt safe throughout this novel – I knew I was in good hands; with each change of voice and structure I remained confident in Smailes’ ability to lead things to a satisfying conclusion. And that’s exactly what she did’
CARYS BRAY
‘This thoroughly modern retelling is everything a fairy tale should be: strange, beautiful and wholly unexpected’
TANYA BYRNE
‘This beautifully told and sometimes disturbing tale will intrigue as it reaches its dramatic conclusion’
Bella
‘I loved it … so good!’
CARRIE HOPE FLETCHER
‘I cannot compare this to anything I’ve ever read. You will fall in love with this book’
EMMA BLACKERY
‘Someone should make this into a film’
LUKEISNOTSEXY
Never enough words to thank the superlative Sophie Wright – actress, mermaid, cake baker, dream maker.
I got a whole world where you’ll never find me.
(‘Yours’, Gaspard Royant, feat. Marie-Flore)
