Coastliners : a novel. Joanne Harris. [sound recording]
Summary:
Madeleine Prasteau is convinced that she can go home again. Ever since she fled her island hometown with her mother 10 years prior, she has been restless, seeking out island after island, trying to recapture the flavor of the tiny village of Les Salants, with its rocky, beachless coast, stone dunes, and gritty, ceaseless wind. After her mother's death in Paris, she returns to Les Salants. And although it does not seem possible, her father is even more silent than she remembered. As she once again settles into the rhythm of small-town life, with its superstitions and long-held grudges, she attempts to crack her father's defenses without doing herself too much harm in the process, and what she learns surprises her.
