"Frankie met Lucia in that summer of tombstoners and storms, when the tomato plants got blight and the bean plants fruited early. She lived in a small cluster of houses just north of Lulworth... It all began."
"There she meets Lucia—and begins to understand herself better, she loved the constant movement of the water and the sticky air, and she loved to see the layers of earthly time squashed up against one another in the Purbeck Monocline."
"With all the intensity that long summer nights can inspire, "she looked at the shape of Lucia next to her and felt that she knew something real.”
