Captain Gault has decided that his family must leave Lahardane. They are after all Protestants living in the big house in rural Cork, and the country is in turmoil. It is 1921. But 8-year-old Lucy can't bear to leave the seashore, the old house, the woods - so she hatches a plan. It is then that the calamity happens - an accident almost, but so vicious in its consequences that it blights the lives of the Gaults for years to come. Trevor's new novel beautifully evokes rural Ireland and the tensions existing there, but also is Hardy-like in its portrayal of the impact of mere chance on a life.

整部作品都是哀婉悲伤的基调，浓郁的爱尔兰历史记忆，细节很出色 。但我总觉得Lucy明明与Ralph相爱却不愿与之结合实在让人费解，这样的安排恐怕也让读者觉得是为哀伤故意制造悲剧。

有时候一个小小的错误需要毕生去弥补。 终其一生，露西盖特的形象都是那个海边孤独小姑娘的背影。
