Allee Richards
Luke, Josh and Matty live for the summer: surfing, fishing and drinking. When Millie joins their crew, life feels even sweeter. But, like the wild coast they call home, where the tide can change from safe to catastrophic in an instant, one decision irrevocably changes the lives of all involved.
In their twenties, they try to recapture the freedom they took for granted when they were young. But they are not the same people and there is no going back.
Set against the nostalgic backdrop of small-town coastal life in the 2000s, Tight Lines is a moving, transformational novel that explores the sometimes devastating consequences of our choices – and how, with hope and friendship, we can keep on living anyway.

‘All salt and sunlight, but with the sharpest of edges. Tight Lines earns every ounce of its impact and will leave a mark that won't fade. Like love, like sex, like life: everything is so easy, until it isn’t.’

‘Tight Lines is a memorial to the promise and perils of youth, rendered in prose that is bright, tender, warm, and wry. A quiet triumph.’
