Elizabeth Reeder and Elizabeth Haynes

Experience the wild beauty of Scotland in both of these novels.

Elizabeth Reeder’s ‘An Archive of Happiness’

Set in the Scottish Highlands over the course of one day during the Avens family’s annual get-together. It’s the summer solstice and theirs is a fractured family, broken by arguments, by things said and not said, by a mother who has left and a father who was left behind. What happens on this day will force them to cleave together to survive and redraw the traditional bonds of family.

‘You, Me and the Sea’ by Elizabeth Haynes

A contemporary story of love and redemption set on a remote, windswept Scottish island from the bestselling author of Into the Darkest Corner and The Murder of Harriet Monckton. Rachel is at crisis point. A series of disastrous decisions has left her with no job, no home, and no faith in herself. But an unexpected job feels like a chance to recover and mend her battered self-esteem.
