The tiny Channel Island of Herm measures one and a half miles long by half a mile wide. This book comprises twelve short stories drawing on the island’s history, myths and legends – each evocative of an island location.
This eclectic mix of tales includes a ghost story, an adventure story, a humorous story, a horror story, a war story and much more. It’s best to read them in the locations they are set, but a chair by a warm fireside will do.
Where Seagulls Dare is a triumph. You don’t need to know Herm to enjoy this book but the island plays such a big part in the stories that the reader will be longing to visit. A creative potpourri.”
Jane Mosse
