About this listen

A troubled mind, a creeping obsession and a sea that’s full of secrets.

When lonely Grace Ferguson meets fellow student Lir Murphy in her marine biology lab the last thing she expects is to fall into a deep, startling obsession with the young man. Lir is strange, quiet and filled with a love for the sea that nobody else understands. When he surprises Grace by reciprocating her feelings she’s convinced she’s found her oddball happily ever after.

But when a series of grisly attacks plague the west coast of Scotland Grace is forced to consider that her marine-loving paramour is more than simply ‘strange’. As Lir’s behaviour grows more erratic, and his relationship with Grace evolves into something dark and dangerous, Grace must figure out who or what Lir is…or risk losing herself in the process.

From the best-selling author of Prince of Foxes comes a brand new Gothic romance for lovers of all things monstrous, tragic and villainous. Pick up your copy of The Boy from the Sea today!

This kept me hooked. The breadcrumb trail was excellently written. The ending took me by surprise. It shows love can make you blind. I wont say more because **spoilers** but this book had me reading way past bedtime to finish it.
