The Water Cure
On an isolated island, three sisters have been raised by their father to fear the outside world and its men. Their lives are governed by strange rituals meant to protect them from a degrading society. But when their father vanishes and two men and a boy wash ashore, the sisters must confront the very threats they were taught to avoid. This haunting debut explores the depths of female desire and the capacity for violence as a psychological game unfolds.
