Description

When a catastrophic flood destroys his family, Gavin Weald is left to rebuild life around his daughter, Océan—only to find that the land offers little comfort beyond silence and fear. Choosing the sea, he sets out with her on a small sailboat through the Caribbean archipelago, where each island reached and each storm endured becomes both a practical test and an emotional reckoning. As they move from place to place, their relationship is reshaped by uncertainty, wonder, and the slow work of learning how to live with loss. With Monique Roffey’s lyrical, intimate prose, the voyage becomes a meditation on grief, resilience, and parenthood, exploring how nature can hold what words cannot and how healing can be shared without being rushed.
