About this listen

Sometimes hope is the most dangerous thing of all.

When their brother dies, sisters Freya and Tamsin lose the one thing that connected them. But when Tamsin goes missing a year later, Freya is determined to find her.

Guided by a trail of diary entries, revelations are unveiled about the grief that drove Tamsin to the edge of a cliff - and into the arms of a mysterious stranger...

A man who promised hope but demanded sacrifice.

Packed with danger, deep waters, and shadowy myths, The Way the Light Bends is perfect for fans of Erin Morgenstern's The Starless Sea, and Sistersong by Lucy Holland.

Lorraine is an award-winning writer and biologist. Having spent years working in remote corners of the world, she now lives by the sea in Scotland and writes stories full of the wilderness and folklore, exploring themes of family, belonging, and the legacy of trauma. Her debut novel, This Is Our Undoing, won the SCKA for Best Debut.

Critic Reviews

Wilson's novel is rooted in a deep sense of place, beautifully evoking the history and magic of Scotland. A fantasy-tinged story about the hole grief makes, complicated family relationships, and the road to healing.
-- A.C. Wise, author of Wendy, Darling
