Skylarking by Kate Mildenhall

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges.

Kate and Harriet are best friends, growing up together on an isolated Australian cape in the 1880s. As daughters of the lighthouse keepers, the two girls share everything until a fisherman, McPhail, arrives in their small community. When Kate witnesses the desire that flares between him and Harriet, she is torn by her envy and longing. One moment in McPhail's hut will change their lives forever.

Inspired by a true story, Skylarking is a stunning debut novel about friendship, love and loss that questions what it is to remember and how tempting it can be to forget. (back cover)
