A powerful YA novel about grief, identity, and finding solace in unexpected places.
Sam's world is shattered by his mother's sudden death. Reeling from the loss, he's sent to live with his estranged aunt and cousins in a small coastal town. Haunted by his mother's secrets and struggling to connect with his new family, Sam finds an unlikely escape in the waves, drawn to the raw power and freedom of surfing.
As Sam navigates the complexities of grief, family secrets, and the intensity of surf culture, he must confront his inner demons and decide whether to sink beneath the weight of his past or ride the wave toward a future he never imagined. For young adults seeking stories of resilience, self-discovery, and the healing power of nature.
