Sea Holly

Leaving behind his family and teaching job, John Vine goes to live an easy life by the sea and quell the wanderlust that threatens to undo him. The mysterious disappearance of one of his students disrupts the surface idyll to reveal a town filled with complex relationships and burned-out lives, all haunted by the images left of John's young pupil. With rich and vibrant prose, this novel explores the relationship between the permanence of the natural world and the transience of modern technology.
