Rush by David Lane

I’ve watched you all for hundreds of years. Spying on the shores from the shallows. You dance, laughing and throwing your heads back to the sky, but I’m there - observing, watching your smiles from the surface. I see what everyone misses.’
Carys lied to George. George made up stories about Carys. Then came three bouncing babies and a life full of love.
But when a lie goes beyond the grave, the unknown, the real and the mythical collide. There’s no going back.
And a debt is waiting to be paid.
