Reviews
Intimate and expansive, this tantalising thriller pulses with mysteries, secrets, and surprises. Man at Sea is both timely and historical, at once rich in implication and action. Like the sea itself the story is swift, deep, exhilarating, and ultimately unpredictable.- Kevin MacNeil, author of The Brilliant and Forever; "A rich exploration of identity, war and sacrifice. Poignant and beautifully written." - Rachelle Atalla, author of The Pharmacist; "In this beguiling book, Liam Bell deftly brings together two parallel worlds. In one, the scars of war are healing. In the other, revenge waits, patiently, ticking like a bomb." - Dr Mandy Haggith,author of the Stone Stories Trilogy
