The Maine coast version of Where the Crawdads Sing.In the small village in Downeast Maine, the locals call him 'Tarzan, ' a strange acting teenager who has lived his whole life on remote Gadus Island. In 1967, when 18-year-old Cleo and her archeologist grandfather sail to Gadus in search of artifacts of the mysterious Red Paint People, Cleo encounters something much more alluring than relics: a bright, strikingly good looking, self-educated, but socially illiterate boy. Cleo learns that his squatter parents disappeared many months before, but he has told no one, fearful of being removed from his beloved island. Over the next three days as their worlds converge, his increasingly delusional behavior begins to frighten and then sadden Cleo. When she tries to help him cope, sharing the loss of her own mother, they come together in a way neither thought possible. But when he reveals a terrifying secret, Cleo is forced into a life-changing decision.
