On the Edge

Caught between the cliffs and an unforgiving storm, Rosalie's fight for survival becomes a reckoning with her troubled past. Trapped in a cave overlooking the roiling sea, the climate activist grapples with the weight of her own losses, heartbreak, and the fractured bond with the son she still senses, like a whisper in the wind. As the injured bird by her side mirrors her struggles, Rosalie is forced to confront the storms within, as much as those outside. With time slipping through her fingers and danger closing in, she faces the ultimate question: can she find a way back-not just to safety, but to herself?

“A beautiful book. Tender, twisting and turning. Life seen through the eyes of a mother haunted. So beautifully written and full of surprises. Thank you so much to the author. Thank you to #netgalley and the publisher for an ARC.” ***** Netgalley reviewer
