Hardback. Condition: Good. This dreamy and atmospheric novel, inspired by Norwegian folklore, follows a sixteen-year-old girl as she tries to discover what truly happened the night her mother disappeared off a frozen fjord under the Northern Lights. "Poetic and richly imagined, The Wide Starlight is a spell-binding journey through a world of Nordic fairytale[s]."--Edith Patou, award-winning author of East and West "Sharp and snow-dusted yet strangely cozy."--Kirkus Reviews, starred review Never whistle at the Northern Lights, the story goes, or they'll sweep down from the sky and carry you away. Sixteen-year-old Eli Davis knows it's true. She was there ten years ago, on a frozen fjord in Svalbard, Norway, the night her mother whistled at the lights and then vanished. Now Eli lives an ordinary life with her dad on Cape Cod. But when the Northern Lights are visible over the Cape for just one night, she can't resist the possibility of seeing her mother again. So she whistles--and it works. Her mother appears, with snowy hair, frosty fingertips, and a hazy story of where she's been all these years. And she doesn't return alone. Along with Eli's mother's reappearance come strange, impossible things: narwhals swimming in Cape Cod Bay, meteorites landing in Eli's yard, and three shadowy princesses with ominous messages. It's all too much too fast, and Eli pushes her mother away. She disappears again--but this time, she leaves behind a note that will send Eli on a journey across continents to the northern tip of the world: Find me where I left you.…
