The book was fantastic and I applaud the author's first work. Howland conveys location, emotion and situation with fantastic clarity. The story moves along pausing only to allow the reader to take in the imagery of the Maine coast and the mixed and conflicting emotions that people face in life. It is too bad that books like this have to be classified as "juvenile fiction" because the writing is much better than many young readers may appreciate. Beautifully written. Interesting story. Nice lesson in life.

I found the story compelling, exciting, and believable. The climax will keep a young reader revitted. My 13-year old absolutely loved it. Perfect beach reading.
