'Beautifully written, with such heart. Not only did it make me cry, it made me see the world in a different way'

Find escape with the beautiful, moving literary debut fromSunday Times-bestselling author Alexandra Heminsley, a stunning story of sisterhood and wilderness.

Clara Seymour is trying to find her feet in London, living away from home for the first time. Brought up by her domineering mother, treasuring time any time with her adoring father, Clara's world is brought to a standstill when her dad abruptly dies.

Then, a mystery comes to light in a letter from him.

I am sure you are aware that before I met your mother I had a previous marriage. But what we never discussed is that we had a daughter.

So begins a journey of discovery that takes Clara to remote Norway and a landscape as brutal as it is bewitching, a voyage fraught with personal and emotional danger to reveal who her father really was - and find the sister she's never met.

Alexandra Heminsley is author of three books about women, bodies and sport, including bestselling memoir Running Like a Girl and Some Body to Love. She is also an experienced co-writer, whose top ten Sunday Times bestsellers include Judy Murray's William Hill Sports Book of the Year-nominated Knowing the Score and Sara Davies' We Can All Make It.

After working in publishing, she became a freelance journalist, broadcaster and author in 2004. She was the books editor at Elle for eight years, and spent ten years at BBC Radio 2's Claudia Winkleman Arts Show. She regularly appears at literary festivals as both co-host and guest, and was a judge for 2011's Costa Novel of the Year Award.
