The Sea Pool

With Connell missing, Iris feels her life unravelling around her. Convinced that he is lying injured in the Tasmanian wilderness, or worse, she sets out to find him. In her lonely, desperate search she confronts her own long-buried fears and obstacles, and gradually steps up to take on a new, and sinister, challenge. Set amid the spectacular scenery of Tasmania and the south coast of New South Wales, The Sea Pool is an Australian mystery about love and family ties, but also human greed, brutality and exploitation of the natural environment. It explores the way past events influence present states of mind, and how commitment and connection can bring strength.
