'If you're looking for your next Handmaid's Tale-esque fix, this is it' BELFAST TELEGRAPH Fiercely written, vivid and timely,***The Seawomen***is an unforgettable and highly acclaimed debut novel about the rise to power of women on a remote island, for fans of Margaret Atwood and Naomi Alderman. They say wickedness lies in the sea. To touch the water - to even look at it - will stir up the sin that naturally lives in the heart of each woman. The only path to salvation is obedience, marriage and motherhood. Those women on the isle of Eden who fail in their duty will be cast back into the dark water, without mercy. But the sea calls to Esta. It always has. When danger forces Esta beyond the shallows, she uncovers a different world. One of freedom and power. It sets her on a course to uncover a secret sunk beneath the waves and the truth that will tear Eden apart.
