| Summary | "Lucretia and her mother have come to tiny Candle Island, Maine (Population: Summer, 986; Winter, 315) to escape -- escape memories of the car accident that killed her father and escape the journalists that hound her mother, a famous and reclusive artist. The rocky coast and ocean breeze are a welcome respite for Lucretia, who dedicates her summer days to painting, exploring the island, and caring for an orphaned osprey chick. But Candle Island has secrets of its own -- a hidden room in her new house, a mysterious boy with a beautiful voice -- and just like the strong tides that surround the shores, they will catch Lucretia in their wake."-- |
