The Sea Sisters is a fabulous debut novel by Lucy Clarke.
Katie takes an emotional journey to the best surfing beaches of the world, in the footsteps of her sister, Mia, who has been found dead in Bali.
With only Mia's journal to guide her she tries to unravel the truth about her sister's death.
Lucy explores the relationships between the sisters, and between them and Finn, the girls' friend from way back, and Ed, Katie's fiancé, as well as with their father, Mick.
Her descriptions of the sea, the beach, the carousel with the seahorses, are also totally mesmerising, captivating and absorbing.
They, whoever they are, always say 'If you only read one book this summer, you must read this.' Well in this case you must! I'm not surprised that it is a 2013 Richard and Judy Summer Read.

I enjoyed reading about this writer in one of the writing magazines the other month - one to add to my ever growing 'to read' list!
