Carette of Sark

On the wind‑blown island of Sark, where ancient feudal customs still shape daily life, the Carré name carries a quiet reverence. The story opens with a vivid portrait of the island’s forty farms, its craggy cliffs, and the narrow Coupée that separates Little Sark from the rest—a place both beautiful and treacherous. Through a series of hand‑drawn maps and photographs, listeners are invited to wander the lanes, the Lady Grotto, and the hidden water caves that have watched generations come and go.

Against this timeless backdrop, a young man named Paul Martel confronts a personal mystery: his father, a seafarer like many islanders, vanished without a trace. Prompted by an unexpected confession from a neighbor, Paul begins to piece together fragmented memories and whispered rumors that have lingered since his early childhood. As he delves deeper, the quiet rhythms of island life give way to questions of loss, loyalty, and the hidden currents that run beneath Sark’s serene surface.
