Like Frail Boats on the Sea

Little Sister Island continues to draw people toward histories they do not fully understand. Molly Cooper's connection to the island and her relationship with Kathleen are part of a community shaped by family ties, old losses and a persistent sense of the uncanny. Eryn Grant arrives with newly discovered maternal connections that complicate her understanding of where she belongs. As their stories intersect, the past offers neither simple comfort nor easy answers. The fourth Little Sister Island novel brings queer relationships and family discovery into a setting where the boundary between the ordinary and the mysterious remains uncertain. Its focus is on the difficult process of finding connection while carrying histories that cannot simply be left behind.
