A beautifully written love letter to the Shiant Islands in the Outer Hebrides, from the author of The Sea Room. This evocative book explores the lives of seabirds — from puffins and gannets to other ocean voyagers — and the fragile environments they call home.

Blending nature writing with reflection, it considers the rhythms of coastal life, the threats these birds face, and what they reveal about our changing world. Lyrical and thought-provoking, it’s a powerful celebration of the natural world we both treasure and endanger.
