Perfect for fans of Kate Atkinson and Claire Keegan. In 1973 on the west coast of Ireland, a baby is found abandoned on the beach. Who is he? Where is he from? Ambrose, a local fisherman, is far more interested in who he will become and - with a curious community looking on - takes the baby home and adopts him. But for Declan, the baby's new brother, this arrival is surely bad news. Rivalries can be decades in the making . . . Set over twenty years, The Boy from the Sea is about a restless boy trying to find his place, in a town caught in the storm of a rapidly changing world.
