Fiction. In 1980 the McCloud family welcomes Trevor, their third child and the last to be born on Eilean Fior, a small island off the west coast of Scotland. Life there, on the eve of Trevor's birth, is grim: the population, once in the hundreds, now hovers around thirty, his parents stubbornly maintain the family business, a guesthouse, despite their increasing trouble turning a profit, and a plague of rats threatens to wipe out the island's last remaining hopes. Against this backdrop, and through a series of interlocking narratives spanning from Trevor's birth to the present day, WHAT ENDS follows each of the McClouds as they navigate their ever-more fragile lives.
