The Edge of Tidal Pools

When Casey arrives on the Ile de Batz, a small island off the coast of France, she is just as ragged and desolate as the coastline materializing out of the mist. She has exiled herself to this foreign land to escape her past, but finds in this inhospitable place that it cannot be outrun.

From her first encounter with islanders, Casey knows that the Ile de Batz is not going to be a haven. Her presence on the island is unwelcome, and her attempts at connection yield nothing but hostility. Only young Pierrot’s enthusiasm and Luke’s enigmatic wisdom allow some light into the darkness both inside and out.

Rife with fierce emotions and profound realizations, The Edge of Tidal Pools follows Casey’s journey through brokenness, while offering a glimpse into the often-misunderstood plight of missionaries’ children.
