Where The Tides Keep Secrets: Some summers change everything
A summer afternoon. A small boat. Two lifelong friends. And three days that will change everything.
Sam Ritchie and Lucy Shackleton have known each other for almost as long as they can remember. Growing up around New Zealand's Marlborough Sounds, theirs is the kind of friendship built on shared summers, endless teasing and the comfortable certainty that some things will never change.
Until one ordinary day on the water goes terribly wrong.
When their boat develops engine trouble and worsening weather drives them onto the rocks, Sam and Lucy are forced into the sea. They make it ashore in an isolated cove, cold, injured and with no way to tell anyone where they are.
As their families search and the hours become days, survival strips away the distractions of ordinary life. Beneath the trees, beside a struggling fire, Sam and Lucy begin saying the things they have spent years avoiding.
But rescue is not the end of their story.
Because some moments stay with us long after the danger has passed. Some places become part of who we are. And sometimes the person who knows us better than anyone is not necessarily the person we are meant to keep.
Set against the wild beauty of the Marlborough Sounds, Where the Tides Keep Secrets is an emotional story of survival, first love, friendship, growing up and the choices that shape a lifetime.
For anyone who has ever wondered about the road not taken, and the person they might have travelled it with.
