Emily King is catapulted into a new life now that her husband of 42 years has suddenly died. She cannot seem to find her bearings in a once predictable world. On a sojourn to one of the Sea Islands that stretch along the coast of South Carolina, she meets a winsome child named Ocean. The little boy and his mother, Isis, enter Emily's life bearing unexpected gifts of warmth, laughter and gritty strength, as well as the friendship of an African man to whom Emily finds herself surprisingly drawn. These four unlikely companions help each other navigate the treacherous terrain of grief, bound together even more tightly as they seek to rescue Ocean when he falls into dangerous hands. In lyrical, often humorous prose, Garatti weaves a story that captures the vulnerability of loss and the quiet power of hope.
