Synopsis: When high school senior Noah Gallagher and his adopted teenage sister, Lo, go to live with their grandmother in her island cottage for the summer, they don't expect much in the way of adventure. Noah has landed a marine biology internship, and Lo wants to draw and paint, perhaps even to vanquish her struggles with bulimia. But then things take a dramatic turn for them both when Noah mistakenly tries to save a mysterious girl from drowning. This dreamlike, suspenseful story--deftly told from multiple points of view--dives deeply into selkie folklore while examining the fluid nature of love and family.e kind and harmless Noah, and when she finds out that her elder has had a decades long romance with a human, she lets him into her secret world of selkie shape-shifters and ancient magic. When the kidnapper strikes again, Mara can no longer trust her feelings or Noah. He and Lo must prove his innocence before they can join Mara in her fight to unravel the mystery of the kidnapper's identity and save her family.
