When Ellen moves with her mother to a new home in Suffolk, she senses a haunting sadness which is in some way connected to her baby sister, and the pollution of the local marshland; Ellen realises that Lily, the baby, will not stay with the family for long. When Lily disappears, Ellen knows she's gone with the sad swans who haunt the area. An engrossing and well-written story which effortlessly combines fantasy and reality.
