About The Floating Church:
Thirteen-year-old Susanna Assheby is on the cusp of womanhood. She longs to be Queen of the May, and for her sweetheart, James Joseph, to return.
But when he does, he is not alone.
Minister Creedance Halley arrives in the isolated village of Hope Ghyll, bringing news of the queen’s death, and vehemently anti-pagan views. He proceeds to implement changes.
Susanna is accosted by the river, but feels compelled not to say who did it – she is, after all, merely a girl. And then comes the flood.
Inhabitants of Hope Ghyll take refuge in the church. Personal slights become magnified. Unchristian acts follow.
