When silence speaks, won't you listen?
Fiona Teuling suffers home confinement with a sickly twin and craves days beyond school lessons, imaginary adventures, and her sister's medical needs. Trapped in a prison with her mother as warden, Fiona longs for escape.
When her father abandons the family and a sea captain takes his place, Fiona's need for the outside world escalates as she seeks forbidden solace in Damon, a boy from the docks. Damon convinces Fiona to flee aboard a departing ship. With home a distant echo, Fiona braves a world she could have only imagined as the line between fantasy and reality blurs. Will Fiona discover the life she seeks, or will Damon be her complete undoing?
THE BOY WHO BROUGHT THE SEA is a character study that brings to light isolation's horrors, the need for human connection, and the consequences of reality unraveled.
