The Sirens
Description of the book
From the critically acclaimed, bestselling author of WeywardSisters separated by centuries.Voices that can't be drowned out. 'Beautiful and magnificent' Jennifer Saint, author of ARIADNE
'A profoundly moving and rich historical story wrapped up in a contemporary murder mystery’ ROSIE ANDREWS, author of THE LEVIATHAN
Lucy is running from what she’s done – and what someone did to her.
There’s only one person who might understand: her sister Jess. But when Lucy arrives at her sister’s desolate cliff-top house, Jess is gone.
Lucy is now alone, in a strange town steeped in rumour. Stories of men disappearing without a trace. A foundling discovered in a sea-swept cave. And women’s voices murmuring on the waves…
As Lucy searches for her sister, those voices get ever louder. They tell of two sisters, two centuries ago, bound and transported across the world. A world where men always get their way. A world that is at once distant, and achingly familiar.
Are these voices luring Lucy closer to her sister? Or will the secrets of the past pull them both under?
'I can't wait to see what Emilia Hart writes next' Kate Morton

Listened to wayward and now sirens on audio and I have lived them both. Not something I’d usually read so out of my comfort zone, but have enjoyed listening to them very much. I hope there are more too come

This was an enjoyable read (listen) with enough twists and turns to hold my attention the characters were believable and I genuinely cared what happened next in their lives. The historical aspect was well researched and written all on all a good read

Enjoyed it but a bit slow paced for me, feel it could have been condensed to a shorter length. Narration was brilliant. History well researched and interesting. Very well written but Weyward still my favourite by this author.

Took me til 40+% to actually get into the story and I’m not sure I would have done at all had this been not been an audiobook, the narration really adding to the atmosphere. But a good well written story all the same
