For years,
rumours of the “Marsh Girl” haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet fishing village. Kya
Clark is barefoot and wild, unfit for polite society. So, in late 1969, when
the popular Chase Andrews is found dead, locals immediately suspect her.
But Kya is not what they say. A born naturalist
with just one day of school, she takes life's lessons from the land, learning
the real ways of the world from the dishonest signals of fireflies. But while
she has the skills to live in solitude forever, the time comes when she yearns
to be touched and loved. Drawn to two young men from town, who are each
intrigued by her wild beauty, Kya opens herself to a new and startling
world—until the unthinkable happens.
