If Josephine can’t work out how to get rid of this girlfriend, she really might lose Daddy for good this time. Mariss may seem friendly enough, but there is something sinister about her-from how her body appears to heal itself miraculously to her hypnotic singing that can hold a roomful of people spellbound-including Daddy. However, not only does her plan to be accepted as the only girl on the team fail, but now a new girlfriend has turned up, and she’s proving hard to scare off. Josephine knows that if she can just get on the team, she can distract Daddy from all these women by rekindling their shared passion for the game. Daddy seems determined to date, and despite her talent and passion, she just can’t seem to get herself on the school cricket team. Josephine wants nothing more than to play cricket and keep her Daddy to herself-but neither ambition is working out. What to Expect: Families, grief, cricket, Caribbean culture, magicįilled with the sounds and smells of the Caribbean and drawing heavily on Caribbean culture and myth, Josephine Against the Sea is both a gripping thriller and an authentic exploration of family love and grief. ![]()
