FACT: Octopuses have three hearts.
FACT: Octopuses have BEAKS, like BIRDS.
FACT: The octopus at the aquarium is psychic!
Sashi feels like she has three hearts and they're all breaking. She's losing her beloved Dadu to dementia, and her parents don't even want her to visit him any more.
She hides from her grief in the aquarium, and that's where she meets Ian.
Like her Dadu, Ian is trapped. Like her Dadu, Ian should be at home with his family. And then Ian tells her he's in danger and only she can help him escape. Except Ian just happens to be an octopus...
Lucy spent many years working as a music journalist for the BBC, interviewing her heroes and absorbing enough live music to confirm you can never have too much of a good thing (especially if that thing is the bass coming through the floor to shake your rib bones). She can't walk past a book shop, and reviews and blogs about books when she's not writing her own, mainly as a ruse to keep interviewing rockstars (otherwise known as authors).
