About this title

Synopsis

— BookLife (Publishers Weekly)

“a powerful exploration of agency and determination in the face of social and institutional powerlessness.”

— The Children’s Book Review

At seventeen, Meg Pullman has cut ties with her past.

Emancipated and determined, she signs on as an intern in the engine room of a research vessel, certain the wide blue horizon will lead her toward the scholarship and freedom she craves.

But the Pacific Ocean isn’t the escape she imagined. Its beauty is haunted by the cries of a polluted world. Ghost nets and floating trash islands echo her own buried pain.

When a humpback whale and an unexpected romantic entanglement force Meg to confront both the ocean’s wounds and her own, she discovers that true survival isn’t about outswimming the current. It’s about surrender. And sometimes, to survive, you don’t fight the waves.

You let go.
