“Fascinating ― engaging and suspenseful and hard to put down.”

“An ambitious book that delivers on all fronts … all in all a great read!”

“An intriguing view of the future … I was both thrilled and, at times, appalled with its methods of survival … I love novels that make you think.”

“A love story of the land, of its people, of friendships and of justice.”

“The final choices Kat faces are both heartbreaking and believable.”

After global collapse, the island of Newfoundland in the warming waters of the North Atlantic has survived under female rule. Children are raised by a network of caregivers, guided by the principles of “It Takes a Village.” But the civilization is threatened when its birth rate suddenly stagnates.

Eighteen-year-old Kat knows she needs to stay on the good side of her elders until her coveted job on the island’s livestock ranch becomes a reality. One morning, she stumbles upon a man in the woods―an injured mainlander named Marcus who has wrecked his boat on the shore. Kat knows he will lose his freedom under the matriarchy if discovered. When he pleads for help, she faces a choice: turn the rogue in, or listen to her heart and help him get home.

But Marcus is captured. Then Kat is shocked when the elders lower their breeding program’s enrolment age to include her, and if she declines, her dream job will not only be delayed but revoked. While she looks for a way out, Marcus confesses his dire mission. Torn between sympathy for him and loyalty to her people, Kat is moved to act. But is his urgency a ruse and part of a strategy that could threaten her village and ultimately, the future of the entire island?

THE WOMEN OF WILD COVE is a survival tale of divided loyalties, love and sacrifice, gender equality, and uneasy alliances in a climate-changed world.
