Lauren Carter’s debut SWARM, pitched in the tradition of Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro, in which an accidental family lives a lonely existence fishing, farming and beekeeping on a rural island but when the footprints of a thieving child start appearing in their garden, the make-shift family is forced into deciding whether to try to help her or not and, in the process, come to terms with their past, to Ruth Linka of Brindle & Glass, by Samantha Haywood.
