The Salt Oracle

Beschreibung

It's been seventeen years since the internet crashed and left the world broken... On the Bellwether, a huge floating college safe from the politics and war of the mainland, Auli looks after the Salt Oracle, a strange, uncanny girl who channels dangerous ghosts to sift information. When her mentor is found dead, Auli is promoted to his former position and investigates what she believes is murder - an investigation that causes her to question the people around her, the Oracle, and the changing nature of the ghosts that threaten them.

A conservation scientist and third culture Scot, Lorraine lives by the sea writing stories influenced by folklore and the wilderness. She has a PhD from the University of St. Andrews but left academia and turned to writing due to disabling illness. Her debut novel, the dystopian thriller This Is Our Undoing, was a multi-award finalist. The follow up, a dark folkloric mystery The Way The Light Bends, was longlisted for the BSFA Best Novel award; her third book, Mother Sea is an exploration of motherhood, climate change and belonging, and was called ‘complex, rich and beautifully crafted’ by Claire North, author of The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August . Lorraine has been stalked by wolves and befriended pythons, she also runs the Rewriting The Margins mentorship scheme for marginalised writers.
