In a post-apocalyptic America, a community survives in a national park, surrounded by water that keeps the Dead at bay. But when winter comes, there's nothing to stop them from crossing the ice. Then homebody Peter puts the camp in danger by naively allowing a stranger to come ashore and he's forced to leave the community of Wranglestone.

And it is the story of the men who come to find them - three strangers washed up by the sea, their gazes hungry and insistent, trailing desire and destruction in their wake.<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Author: </span>Mackintosh, Sophie<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Published: </span>UK : Hamish Hamilton, 2018.<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Published: </span>UK : Hamish Hamilton, 2018.<br />248 pages ; 23 cm<br /><br />Bexhill Library - (East Sussex Libraries) - Adult Fiction Hardback - Available - 04526709<br />Crowborough Library - (East Sussex Libraries) - Adult Fiction Hardback - Available - 04526714<br />Lewes Library - (East Sussex Libraries) - Adult Fiction Hardback - Available - 04526712<br /> Sunshine & roses / David Lapham. https://eastsussex.spydus.co.uk/cgi-bin/spydus.exe/ENQ/WPAC/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&BRN=1949674&CF=BIB Dark and twisted, funny and heartbreaking, intimate and epic - this book tells the story of a boy and a girl, how they fell in love and hatched a scheme to blow up the Baltimore underworld.
