Four women spark a revolution on a Caribbean island – the electrifying new novel from the Costa-winning author of The Mermaid of Black Conch.

Early one morning, at the close of St Colibri’s carnival, a young female steel pan player is found dead beneath a cannonball tree. It is a discovery that will transform the lives of everyone on this small island . . .

Fiercely alive, Passiontide is a novel of women daring to imagine a different world. It confirms Monique Roffey as one of our most spellbinding storytellers.
