Beschreibung

"A charming tale of found families and mermaids, with my favourite kind of hero at its heart"- Elle McNicoll, award-winning author of A Kind of Spark<br><br>A stunning literary adventure from an incredible debut talent, perfect for fans of Kiran Millwood Hargrave, Cerrie Burnell and Katherine Rundell.<br><br>I was Haven Point's first Wreckling, but I certainly wasn't the last. There are forty-two of us now, not including the mermaids. When you're a Wreckling, you mainly spend your days squabbling, eating and planning adventures. Oh, and Wrecklings also carry out wreckings, which is how we got our name . . .<br><br>Washed up as a baby beside a remote lighthouse and raised by a mermaid, Alpha Lux was the first foundling at Haven Point. Now the lighthouse is a ramshackle home for any disabled person who needs somewhere to belong. Looting from passing ships to make a living, they call themselves the Wrecklings, and for the children of Haven Point life is spent adventuring on the wild shore (and getting into trouble with the grown-ups).<br><br>But when Alpha spots a strange light up on the headland, she realizes that her beloved family are in danger of being discovered by Outsiders.<br><br>With their home under threat, the Wrecklings must decide what kind of future they want . . . and what they're willing to do to get it.
