About this listen

A heartwarming novel to fall in love with

The day Heather, Niamh and Lauren met, they promised to be best friends for life, and that instant connection only grew stronger with their weekly sunrise swims in their stunning local lake. When they left school, they agreed that, no matter where life took them, every year on midsummer’s dawn, they would meet at their old spot and swim together.

Now, fifteen years later, the tradition has disappeared in the face of life’s realities. In fact, they don’t speak any more – not since that night . . .

But this summer, they find themselves back in their Irish hometown and realise this could be their last chance to recapture what they have lost. Will their return to sunrise swimming heal each of them, and help them rekindle the friendships they once treasured?

Critic Reviews

'The Sunrise Swimming Society is a heartwarming tale of family, community and sisterhood. Rosie Hannigan's three protagonists are incredibly honest and flawed, but such likeable women and you can't help but root for them throughout and hope that they manage to overcome their differences and the challenges they face in life. Heartbreaking and uplifting in equal measure, The Sunrise Swimming Society is a beautiful story.' Helen Hawkins
