The Burial Tide - Paperback
The Burial Tide - Paperback
by Neil Sharpson (Author)
Drawing on the creatures and horrors of Irish folklore, The Burial Tide unearths our darkest truths: how far we'd go to win our freedom, and how quickly our desires blur the line between human and monster.
A woman who can't remember her death.On an eerily quiet island off the coast of Ireland, a woman with no memory claws her way out of her grave and back to life. But not everyone welcomes the return of Mara Fitch. An island with a terrible secret.
Inishbannock. Where strange misshapen figures watch from the trees and the roads are covered in teeth. Where two brothers gamble for nothing, the doctor only treats the dead, and the pub owner speaks in riddles. Where a poet loses and finds his soul. And a husband without a wife claims to know everything about Mara. A past that refuses to stay buried.
As Mara returns to her life on this upside-down island, her memories begin to leech their way back to the surface. The more she remembers, the more the village will do anything to stop her . . . But the sea remembers it all.
