From the "remarkable storyteller" ( "San Francisco Chronicle" ) and highly acclaimed author of "The Wettest County in the World" comes a suspenseful novel about a young American couple who win a pub on the southernmost tip of Ireland and become embroiled in local violence and intrigue. Matt Bondurant's novel "The Wettest County in the World" was a "New York Times " Editor's Pick, one of the "San Francisco Chronicle" 's 50 Best Books of the Year, and is being made into a major motion picture. Now, Bondurant has delivered "The Night Swimmer," an atmospheric tale infused with Hitchcockian suspense. When Fred and Elly Bulkington arrive in a small town on the southern coast of Ireland from Vermont, having won a pub in a contest, they encounter a wild, strange land and the native resistance to outsiders. As Fred immerses himself in the life of a pub-owner, Elly takes the ferry out to a nearby island where she--to the disbelief of the locals--is consumed by her ritual of open water ocean swimming, pushing herself to the limits. Elly becomes enmeshed in the island's troubles--the power struggles between an enigmatic goat herder and the family that has controlled the area for centuries--while Fred's sanity wavers and their marriage begins to unravel. Filled with lush imagery of the Irish coast, crashing sea, rolling hills, and rich Irish lore, "The Night Swimmer " is a stunning novel that exposes the dark and unseen crevasses in the human heart.
