Em is a twelve-year-old girl in a floating community off the Gulf
Coast. Kaya is a political activist in a terrifying prison. They
are pen pals. Em's wistful message in a bottle finds its way to
Kaya, imprisoned above the molten lava of the Ruby Lake. Both are
living precarious lives, at the mercy of societal, natural, and
perhaps supernatural forces beyond their control. Kaya's letters
inspire Em, and Em's comfort Kaya-but soon this correspondence
becomes more than personal. Individual lives, communities, and even
the fate of an entire nation will be changed by this exchange of
letters. "Pen Pal" is a story of friendship and bravery across age,
distance, and culture, at the intersection of the natural and
supernatural world.
