One summer afternoon, Julieta, a seven-year-old girl disappears on a beach on the coast of the Balearic Island of Formentera. Her eleven-year-old sister Greta is unable to stop it from happening.

Twenty year later, an adult Greta who lives in London returns to Formentera for the first time after the tragedy to care for her ill grandmother. She’ll also be reunited with her mother on the island, whom she hasn’t seen since she was young, and Max, a friend bound to her by the strength of a shared childhood.

All Those Seas is a poignant novel about how facing our deepest fears can have healing powers. This captivating tale explores family bonds, the weight of secrets, and the sea's ability to both destroy and renew.
