Publisher's summary

A troubled mind, a creeping obsession and a sea that’s full of secrets.

When lonely Grace Ferguson meets fellow student Lir Murphy in her marine biology lab the last thing she expects is to fall into a deep, startling obsession with the young man. Lir is strange, quiet and filled with a love for the sea that nobody else understands. When he surprises Grace by reciprocating her feelings she’s convinced she’s found her oddball happily ever after.

But when a series of grisly attacks plague the west coast of Scotland Grace is forced to consider that her marine-loving paramour is more than simply ‘strange’. As Lir’s behaviour grows more erratic, and his relationship with Grace evolves into something dark and dangerous, Grace must figure out who or what Lir is…or risk losing herself in the process.

From the best-selling author of Prince of Foxes comes a brand new Gothic romance for lovers of all things monstrous, tragic and villainous. Pick up your copy of The Boy from the Sea today!

Tragic Romance

This book is so hard to describe. I suppose the description of Gothic Romance fits. It centers around the h who has a crush on the H. They eventually get together and the H's tragic history unfolds. The end isn't a HEA, but the story is such a way that the listener is quite OK with that. The narrator did a great job and her accent really brings color to the story while still being pretty easy for an American listener to understand. There were a few words that kept throwing me off, like "parents," but it was easy to figure it out based on the context.
