‘I know that the sea is clear, it has no colour. With the guile of a chameleon, it reflects back the weather and landscape. Like the sea, my mind is clear.’
‘…but it was my growing suspicion that recovery might lead to something even worse that kept me turning page after page.’ – James Ferron Anderson, award-winning author of The River And The Sea
