The Sirens by Emilia Hart

 


A beautifully told story of the bond of sisters hundreds of years apart. The two sets of sisters have an unusual characteristic: they live on land but yearn to be in water. Being in water is problematic as water causes their skin to flake and painfully peel. The two current time sisters have dreams of the other two, of the hardships they faced and of the arduous journey they made captive on a ship from Ireland to Australia. 

The enduring qualities of sisterhood bind the sisters together and their experiences create an unbelievably engaging story.
