The Way the Light Bends

Sometimes hope is the most dangerous thing of all.

When their brother dies, sisters Freya and Tamsin lose the one thing that connected them. But when Tamsin goes missing a year later, Freya is determined to find her.

Guided by a trail of diary entries, revelations are unveiled about the grief that drove Tamsin to the edge of a cliff - and into the arms of a mysterious stranger...

A man who promised hope but demanded sacrifice.

Packed with danger, deep waters, and shadowy myths, ´The Way the Light Bends´ is perfect for fans of Erin Morgenstern's ´The Starless Sea', and 'Sistersong' by Lucy Holland.
