Song of the Saltings
A MONSTER… A GIRL… A SACRIFICE…
‘Utterly gripping’ Lucy Strange
Every year on the island of Brack, a sacrifice is made to the creature that dwells in the salt marshes.
As a child, Lotta Salter was spared by the Glimm but was forever changed. Now sixteen, she tends the island’s sacrificial horses, keeping her distance from the villagers who whisper about her fate. But something is stirring. The island is dying and a song threads through her dreams. Is the Glimm calling Lotta back?
‘A tense folk-horror fable…Richly imagined and deeply resonant’ Darren Simpson
