The fisherman's gift [large print] : a novel / Julia R. Kelly.

Kelly, Julia R., (author.).

Summary:

"It's 1900 and in Skerry, a small Scottish fishing village, a young boy washes up on the shore. He bears an uncanny resemblance to teacher Dorothy's son, lost to the sea at the same age many years before. Dorothy agrees to look after the child until they can uncover the mystery of his origins. The boy's arrival also forces Dorothy to face the truth about her brief but passionate love affair with Joseph, the fisherman who found the boy on the shore and who has been the subject of whispers connecting him to the drowning of Dorothy's son years earlier. As the past rises to meet the present, long-buried secrets are unearthed within this tight-knit community."-- Back cover.
