Wild Dark Shore
by Charlotte McConaghy
This book offers an intriguing premise: a family stranded on a remote island when a mysterious woman washes ashore. The big question—what is she doing there?
At first, I struggled with the large cast of characters, which made it difficult to keep track of who was who. However, once I figured it out, the story started to flow. Every time I picked this book up I felt like I was watching *Lost* on TV, with its mix of mystery and survival.
The setting is wonderfully atmospheric, and I was particularly drawn to the kids, whose dynamics added depth to the story. This book explores themes of grief, secrets, survival, and the unknown. The mystery kept me hooked until the very end. Overall, it’s a captivating read that combines suspense with emotional depth.
