City boy Joe is fourteen. A few years ago his Mum left his Dad and him, and recently his father died. At the funeral Joe's Uncle Harry and Aunt Ellen suggest that he comes to live with them, and their daughter Meg, in Cockle Bay. Cockle Bay is a small fishing village on the south coast of Australia. After the hustle and drama of the city the Bay seems a very slow and quiet. Wayward Island, just of the coast from the Bay, seems romantically ideal. But soon Joe will loose his idealism about his new home. He and Meg learn that Scarface, a huge white pointer shark, has returned to the Bay. Scarface is monstrously real, but as elusive as a shadow. Wayward Islands is also called 'wayward' for a reason. In one year Joe and Meg have adventures that will emblazon seashores and shadows on their memory forever.
