The Loney
AUTHOR: Andrew Michael Hurley
 
Two brothers. One mute, the other his lifelong protector.
Year after year, their family visits the same sacred shine on a desolate strip of coastline known as the Loney, in desperate hope of a cure.
In the long hours of waiting, the boys are left alone. They cannot resist the causeway revealed with every turn of the treacherous tide, the old house they glimpse at its end . . .
Many years on, Hanny is a grown man no longer in need of his brother's care.
But then the child's body is found. And the Loney always gives up its secrets, in the end.
 
Recommended by the BookBug, a darkly atmospheric read about religion both ancient and modern and the blurred lines between. A page turner that leaves you affected and thoughtful.
