A tornado has passed through, a captain is missing, and something strange is shining on the water.
Spring in Annabelle is supposed to mean blooming dogwoods, fresh strawberries, and kite-flying at Heron Point. But when a sudden tornado tears across the coast, Savannah, Jax, Lily, and Walter discover more than storm damage in its wake.
An African gray parrot appears beneath Grammy Birdie's porch. Shrimp boat captain Hollis is nowhere to be found. Along the shoreline, fish wash up, pelicans struggle to fly, and an unnatural shimmer glints across the water.
As the town works to rebuild, the friends follow a trail of clues from the damaged marina to the threatened turtle nests. The deeper they search, the clearer it becomes that the storm uncovered something dangerous. If they cannot find its source, the wildlife and the coast they love may pay the price.
Filled with coastal charm, family warmth, lovable animals, gentle humor, and just the right amount of suspense, The Strange Shimmer is a clean middle-grade mystery for readers ages eight to twelve and the fourth adventure in the Three Oaks Mysteries.
