Publisher's Summary

Best seller The Oyster Catcher is Jo Thomas' first irresistibly feel-good audiobook, set on the coast of Ireland.

Dooleybridge, County Galway: the last place Fiona Clutterbuck expects to end up, alone, on her wedding night. But after the words 'I do' have barely left her mouth, that's exactly where she is - with only her sequinned shoes and a crashed camper van for company.

One thing is certain: Fi can't go back. So when the opportunity arises to work for a brooding local oyster farmer, Sean Thornton, she jumps at the chance. Now Fi must navigate suspicious locals, jealous rivals and an unpredictable boss if she's to find a new life, and love, on the Irish coast. And nothing - not even a chronic fear of water - is going to hold her back.

Join Fi as she learns the rules of the ocean - and picks up a few pearls of Irish wisdom along the way....

Fabulous story... but...

I really did enjoy this book, but I can't recommend the author, and I won't be reading any other books by her. Swearing, sex, infidelity, and pregnancy out of wedlock. None of these things are generally a deal breaker for me, and were largely not present in the whole of the book, but there are too many themes I don't support, or even enjoy reading about. Pity. The writing is otherwise fabulous. The performance was exceptional.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
