It isn’t easy being the not-quite youngest in a large family – a single pebble on a shingle beach. Liam’s home life is complicated by his step-sister’s friendship with the troubled son of a Russian billionaire, and his unknown mother has left him an inheritance which she never intended and which he cannot avoid.
Liam struggles to protect his family against unimagined dangers but a half-term trip up the Suffolk coast in the Chinese junk Strong Winds detonates a series of events which bring gloriously unexpected discoveries and permanent collateral damage. Can anyone escape involvement in this new Cold War?
