Some of these stories are silly. Some are sad. Some are serene. Much like our lives. Drop in and meet some characters you may recognize, and get to know the ones you don't know. Yet.
Five disparate, above that certain age, characters living in a mostly deserted trailer park on Whidbey Island in Washington State are all coming to grips with what to do next with their lives. Aggie Trent can't understand why resident Jake Darnell looks the spitting image of her long-dead best friend Silas; Margo Spenser can't seem to get past her depressions to make any decisions, and Dagmar and Selina have had a very tough decision made for them.
Field: a region of space in which a physical property has a determinable value at every point. These stories occupy regions of space-some raise questions, some may provide answers, some simply exist; yet each has a determinable value at every point. Like fields in the English countryside, one story connects to another for an instant, then becomes its own particular landscape.
Young Inga Henderson has grown up as the daughter of the manse on a northerly Shetland isle named Vaalafiel. She is without a father; he died in a mysterious tragedy on a boat trip to Europe, in which his best friend also died, and which her mother, who was with them, won't speak about. Living with Inga and her mother in seclusion on Vaalafiel is that best friend's son, Laurence Traquair, a young man of culture who is subject to memory-obliterating fits and nervestorms, and who is Inga's kindest ally in a world made grim through her mother's coldness.In the meantime, on the neighbouring island of Jewbadaal, young, confident and cheerful Aytoun Weir lives with his father, the minister, his wise mother and happy sisters. Despite Inga's mother's wish to remain secluded, he is engaged to make the daily short trip across the voe to be her tutor. As time goes by, and her mother's fears are allayed, Inga is allowed to travel to Jewbadaal. The contrast with the gloom and quiet of her own existence could not be stronger, as is that between the two young men in Inga's life-retiring Laurence and gregarious Aytoun. Confounding their differences, the two young men become fast friends.Inga's curiosity about her father and the mysterious story of his death only grows more intense as she matures, and she discovers an even deeper ally in Aytoun. Slowly they uncover elements of the tale, but key parts are still missing. At the same time, Inga's loyalties are being tested - she has married Laurence, but feels drawn almost subconsciously to Aytoun. Only when Aytoun plans a boat-trip to Europe himself, taking Laurence and Inga's mother with him, does the full truth come to light. An astonishing story of smuggling, jealousy and embittered relationships is revealed. As the boat bringing the travellers home nears Vaalafiel, a storm erupts. In one night of momentous events, including the advent of a stranger who remains unknown to any but Inga, and a shipwreck in weather which would test the hardiest rescuer, her whole world is turned upside down. What she realizes in that time of storm and stress changes her life for ever.In this debut novel, Jessie Saxby took elements of her own life and experiences and wove them into the gripping story of a young woman discovering herself through her hitherto hidden past, and her maturing understanding of the costs and compromises of love. The result is a passionate novel with modern gothic undertones, reminiscent of the work of Charlotte Bront and Robert Louis Stevenson, which anticipates the stirring tales of Daphne du Maurier.
