(? - ) UK author whose first novel, the Young Adult Near Future The Girl Who Broke the Sea (2023), confronts its young protagonist, an adolescent who feels trapped in the deep-sea mining and research station called Deephaven, with personal and ethical issues to solve. Her botanist mother and other Scientists are in the process of discovering a seemingly sentient being from the benthos, but the gangly but energized protagonist's involvement in the investigation exposes a corporate plan to exploit the being commercially, at risk to the planet (see Ecology).
