When a teen girl who washed ashore in a green canoe as a baby finds her guardian’s severed head on the beach and unexpectedly inherits his vast island estate, she must uncover his killer—and the truth about her own past—in this “dazzling, twist-filled mystery about love, identity, and ambition” (Isabel Ibañez, author of What the River Knows) from Stacey Lee, the New York Times bestselling author of The Downstairs Girl.
Orcas Island, Washington.
1918.
Lucy Nowhere has spent her whole life feeling like she belongs nowhere. And after eighteen years on the vast estate of the shipbuilder who took her in after she washed ashore in a green canoe as a baby, she is set to leave for college—and to leave behind the questions about where she comes from forever.
Then, days before her planned departure, Lucy finds her guardian’s severed head on the beach. Rumors swirl that a vengeful spirit and its minions, the sea wolves, have struck again. But Lucy doesn’t believe in myths; she knows that the killer is human. When she is unexpectedly named heiress to the estate, she realizes that the answers to the questions she’s asked all her life have suddenly become far more dangerous. Those closest to Lucy beg her to escape while she can, but she refuses to flee. To uncover the truth about her guardian’s death—and about herself—Lucy will have to unravel a mystery nearly two decades old . . . the one that has haunted the island ever since.

"Chin’s narration balances a dramatic, fast-moving plot with lush descriptions and poignant historical details."
"Katharine Chin masterfully conveys the many tensions of Lucy’s story. Found in a canoe floating to Orcas Island off the coast of Washington state and raised by a kindly benefactor, Lucy has always wondered about her parents and her heritage. She’s planning on heading off to college to make a fresh start—until she comes upon her benefactor’s severed head and is named heir of his estate. Chin’s propulsive narration plunges listeners into Lucy’s search to solve the murder and uncover the secrets of her origin; explain her connection with animals, including orcas; determine whom she truly loves; and find her place in the world."
