Zed and her family move unwillingly from London to a village in Cornwall, in an attempt to support her mothers mental health. Dad says they need a fresh start, but no ones asked Zed what she thinks. She knows shell never fit into her new school, or make any friends, let alone find someone special. At this rate shell be lucky to find a phone signal... Maybe their new home will help with Mums depression, and keep Zeds sister Amy away from her dropout boyfriend, but why does it have to be so remote? Why has the boathouse been locked up for seventy years? Why do the birds living by the estuary fill her with such dread? And what do they WANT?Gradually the family fall apart, and it is only when Zed realises that the local cormorants are playing a part in the disasters that consume them, in revenge for an ancient wrong, that she and Amy start working together to find a solution and call a truce.
