About the Book

Wild Dark Shore by Charlotte McConaghy is an atmospheric, emotionally gripping novel from the bestselling author of Migrations and Once There Were Wolves, set on a remote, storm-battered island in the sub-Antarctic. The novel follows the Salt family — widowed father Dominic and his three children — the last remaining caretakers of a global seed vault on an isolated island being slowly reclaimed by the rising sea, as they prepare for their final, difficult evacuation before the island disappears beneath the water for good.

Just as the family readies to leave, a mysterious woman named Rowan washes ashore, near death, and is taken in by the Salts as she recovers. As Rowan's presence unsettles the family's fragile equilibrium, long-buried secrets, grief, and hidden agendas begin to surface — both hers and the Salt family's own — while the island itself grows increasingly dangerous and unstable around them, forcing everyone toward reckonings they can no longer avoid before the final evacuation.

Blending McConaghy's signature lyrical prose, ecological urgency, and page-turning suspense, Wild Dark Shore has resonated with readers for its haunting island setting, tightly wound mystery, and deeply human exploration of grief, family, and the world's uncertain future, further cementing McConaghy's reputation as one of the most compelling voices in contemporary literary fiction.
